Job Growth In Greer SC

GREER WELCOMES FLURRY OF JOB GROWTH

Technology is advancing at a rapid pace in Greer SC. Regions with a myopic attitude towards related industries can quickly be left behind. However, Upstate South Carolina has not been left behind.

Greer, SC, in fact, is home to Fortune 500 companies BMW (#79 Global) and Honeywell (#81). Both of these technology-related corporations operate large facilities in Greer with definite plans to grow.

Area Development released an article earlier this fall entitled, BMW Expects to Create 100 New Jobs at South Carolina Plant. This announcement presents a wide range of employment opportunities for local Upstate engineers, IT professionals and beyond.

In-mid October 2011, Bloomberg Businessweek shared Honeywell's plan for a $25 million expansion which will add 30 new jobs at their Greer plant aimed to deepen their aviation and aerospace clusters. In an article from Industry Week, site manager for Honeywell, Ray Kim relates, "South Carolina has provided us with an excellent business climate and the skilled talent we require." These new positions will bring talent to our area seeking a community that supports a balanced lifestyle close to their work.
