About the Role

Tooling Manager (Group Leader)


Location: Elizabethtown, KY
Shift: 2nd Shift
Salary Range: $90,000 – $100,000

About the Role


Our client is seeking a hands-on Tooling Manager (Group Leader) to lead a skilled tool room team within a fast-paced automotive manufacturing environment. This role is ideal for a seasoned Class C Tool & Die professional who thrives in progressive and transfer die operations and has strong leadership experience within a unionized (UAW) setting.


This is not a desk job. You will be on the floor, in the press, and in the shop — driving performance, mentoring toolmakers, and ensuring tooling reliability that directly impacts production quality and uptime.


Success in this role means reducing scrap and downtime, optimizing die performance, and leading a team that consistently delivers on Quality, Delivery, and Cost (QDC).
