[Hyundai Transys plans to create 320 new jobs](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point) in West Point, Georgia, as part of an investment of nearly $560 million to expand its manufacturing capabilities, under a project [unveiled by Gov. Brian Kemp on Thursday](https://www.wtvm.com/2026/10/08/hyundai-transys-investing-nearly-560m-add-third-plant-320-jobs-west-point/). The expansion [will include facility upgrades to plants one and two, as well as the construction of a third plant](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point), and it will support added production capacity for electrified powertrains for hybrid vehicles. The jobs are [administrative, supervisory and production positions](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia), and [it is unclear when hiring for the 320 new positions will officially begin](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia). For [Metaintro](https://www.metaintro.com) readers in west Georgia, this guide covers where the company points applicants, what Georgia Quick Start, a named project partner, does, and which local training already lists this employer.

## What Is Hyundai Transys Planning for West Point?

The project sits at [6801 Kia Parkway in West Point](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point), where Hyundai Transys plans to [upgrade its existing two facilities](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia). The investment is [nearly $560 million](https://www.wtvm.com/2026/10/08/hyundai-transys-investing-nearly-560m-add-third-plant-320-jobs-west-point/), and the project is [bringing 320 new jobs to the area](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia).

Hyundai Transys [plans to construct a third plant and upgrade its existing two facilities](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia), and the whole project is [designed to bolster production capacity for electrified powertrains used in hybrid vehicles](https://www.wtvm.com/2026/10/08/hyundai-transys-investing-nearly-560m-add-third-plant-320-jobs-west-point/). West Point Mayor Steve Tramell described the project as a [state-of-the-art hybrid transmission manufacturing facility](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point).

[The company plans the 320 new jobs as part of its ongoing efforts to support global automotive customers with operations in North America](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point). The Georgia Department of Economic Development's Global Commerce team [led the competitive project in partnership with the City of West Point, Georgia Quick Start and Georgia Power](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia).

One naming point helps when you search for openings. The employer is Hyundai Transys, an automotive parts supplier, and the local operation is [Hyundai Transys Georgia Powertrain (HTGP)](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point). It is [a global supplier specializing in automotive powertrains and seating systems](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia) and [a major supplier of Kia Motors in West Point](https://georgiaquickstart.org/projects/hyundai-transys/), and its address is on Kia Parkway.

## Which Jobs Will Hyundai Transys Hire For, and How Do You Apply?

The company [will be hiring for administrative, supervisory, and production positions, and interested individuals can learn more at www.hyundai-transys.com/en](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point). [Job seekers interested in applying for new positions can find more details](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia) at the same address.

No job titles, shifts or requirements are given for the [administrative, supervisory, and production positions](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point), so treat any listing that claims specific pay for these 320 roles with caution and compare it with www.hyundai-transys.com/en, the company site [named in the governor's release](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point), which you should bookmark and check regularly rather than relying on reposts.

## What Is Still Unknown About the West Point Jobs?

Several things a job seeker would want are still missing. [Officials have not yet released a specific construction timeline or an exact opening date for the new third plant](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia), and [it is also unclear when hiring for the 320 new positions will officially begin](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia).

No wage or salary figure has been published for the new roles, in [state](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point), [Fox 5 Atlanta](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia) or [WTVM](https://www.wtvm.com/2026/10/08/hyundai-transys-investing-nearly-560m-add-third-plant-320-jobs-west-point/) coverage.

That gap matters for planning. The 320 figure is a plan, since the company [plans to create 320 new jobs](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point).

> The retention of more than 1,200 jobs and creation of over 300 new positions reflects the strength of West Point’s automotive industry and creates meaningful opportunity for our residents, West Point Mayor Steve Tramell said, according to [the governor's release](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point).

## Who Is Hyundai Transys, and How Big Is It in West Point Today?

The company [currently supports roughly 1,250 jobs at its West Point location](https://www.wtvm.com/2026/10/08/hyundai-transys-investing-nearly-560m-add-third-plant-320-jobs-west-point/), or [about 1,250 workers](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia). In rounder terms, the mayor spoke of the [retention of more than 1,200 jobs and creation of over 300 new positions](https://www.wtvm.com/2026/10/08/hyundai-transys-investing-nearly-560m-add-third-plant-320-jobs-west-point/).

Hyundai Transys [was founded in 1994 and has grown into a global supplier specializing in automotive powertrains and seating systems](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia). It [operates 32 sites across 10 countries with more than 11,185 employees worldwide](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia).

Hyundai Transys, in the company description in the governor's release, claims [the world’s only full lineup of transmissions](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point) and continues to expand its portfolio with electrified powertrain solutions, including hybrid and electric vehicle drive systems, as well as seat systems.

Its role in the area is long-standing, as the supplier [has maintained operations in Georgia for over two decades](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia). The company is [headquartered in Seoul, South Korea](https://georgiaquickstart.org/projects/hyundai-transys/).

## How Does This Compare With the Earlier Hyundai Transys Project in West Point?

[This is not the company's first West Point expansion announcement](https://thecitizen.com/?p=134034), and the older numbers should not be mixed into the new ones. In an earlier announcement, Gov. Brian Kemp said Hyundai Transys would [invest more than $240 million in expanding their operations in Georgia, creating 678 full-time, long-term positions at a new manufacturing facility in the West Point area](https://thecitizen.com/?p=134034).

That earlier project was a [620,000-square-foot West Point plant near the company’s current location on the Kia campus](https://thecitizen.com/?p=134034), which [was planned to produce eight-speed transmissions](https://thecitizen.com/?p=134034). The earlier plan also covered the company's [plans to create 165 supplementary construction handling and inspection jobs](https://thecitizen.com/?p=134034).

Those earlier figures describe a separate, earlier project. The current announcement is the [nearly $560 million expansion with 320 new jobs](https://www.wtvm.com/2026/10/08/hyundai-transys-investing-nearly-560m-add-third-plant-320-jobs-west-point/), and it includes [facility upgrades to plants one and two](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point), the company's [existing two facilities](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia). Back then, people interested in jobs were [encouraged to continue checking the company’s website for updated information](https://thecitizen.com/?p=134034), much like the state's pointer to [www.hyundai-transys.com/en](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point) this time.

## How Does Georgia Quick Start Train New Hires?

Georgia Quick Start is one of [the named project partners](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point). Quick Start [is a discretionary incentive providing customized, company-specific workforce training at no cost to companies investing in and creating jobs in Georgia](https://www.georgiaquickstart.org/about-us). It dates back to [1967, when Georgia’s leadership passed legislation](https://www.georgiaquickstart.org/about-us) to create the program.

The process runs in stages. Quick Start [meets with company leadership, subject-matter experts, and operations teams to define the scope of training needs](https://georgiaquickstart.org/what-we-do/), then [maps out training plans unique for each company](https://georgiaquickstart.org/what-we-do/), with an emphasis on visual learning and hands-on training. Delivery is flexible, and Quick Start says it delivers [the training whenever and wherever it makes sense for each company project](https://georgiaquickstart.org/what-we-do/), while [protecting a company’s intellectual property](https://georgiaquickstart.org/what-we-do/).

Quick Start has trained Hyundai Transys workers before, and it [had begun providing Hyundai Transys with company-specific training for the Metaplant near Savannah, which was then slated to start production by early 2025](https://georgiaquickstart.org/projects/hyundai-transys/), on topics including [seat assembly process on various Hyundai EV models, electrical motor controls, and a manufacturing process overview](https://georgiaquickstart.org/projects/hyundai-transys/). Trainees there were also [provided with safety and organizational development courses, such as Lean, 5S and workplace ethics](https://georgiaquickstart.org/projects/hyundai-transys/).

That training was tied to the Metaplant [near Savannah](https://georgiaquickstart.org/projects/hyundai-transys/), the plant behind [Savannah's hiring surge](https://www.metaintro.com/blog/savannah-job-boom-hyundai-plant). Quick Start's West Point training center was [designed to ensure that Kia's team members are ready](https://georgiaquickstart.org/projects/kia-georgia-kgtc/). Its [70,000-square-foot Kia Georgia Training Center opened on March 25, 2008](https://georgiaquickstart.org/projects/kia-georgia-kgtc/), built in partnership with Kia, as the first building in the Kia complex to open for business. [West Georgia Technical College is the technical college partner on Quick Start's Kia Georgia project](https://georgiaquickstart.org/projects/kia-georgia-kgtc/).

> Quick Start provides the core understanding, so when we take the trainees to the production line, they are better prepared, Eddie Mabe, Senior Manager of Human Resources and Administration at Hyundai Transys in West Point, said, according to [the Georgia Quick Start project page](https://georgiaquickstart.org/projects/hyundai-transys/).

## Which Local Training Already Connects to Hyundai Transys?

West Georgia Technical College's maintenance technician training [lists Hyundai Transys Georgia Powertrain among the participating manufacturers](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-launches-free-maintenance-technician-training-program/). The college's Economic Development division [is introducing a free Maintenance Technician Training Program in partnership with Georgia Power](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-launches-free-maintenance-technician-training-program/), which [was scheduled to begin with orientation on August 26](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-launches-free-maintenance-technician-training-program/), and students who complete it [will have the opportunity to interview with participating manufacturers including Milliken, Interface, Hyundai Transys Georgia Powertrain, Inc., Yamaha Motor Manufacturing Corporation of America, and Miniat](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-launches-free-maintenance-technician-training-program/), and they [are set to interview with employers November 23-25](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-launches-free-maintenance-technician-training-program/).

The course content is specific. Participants [complete online modules focused on electrical and mechanical maintenance skills, including workplace safety, electrical fundamentals, tools and components, measurement, applied math, mechanical tools, rigging and lifting, and power transmission](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-launches-free-maintenance-technician-training-program/), then move to hands-on lab training at the college's Regional Workforce Training Center in LaGrange. [A high school diploma or GED is required to participate](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-launches-free-maintenance-technician-training-program/).

The college's [Accelerated Maintenance Technician training program](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-and-georgia-power-address-manufacturing-workforce-needs-through-accelerated-training/) is underway with [23 students enrolled after receiving 200 applications](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-and-georgia-power-address-manufacturing-workforce-needs-through-accelerated-training/), and it is aimed at [work-ready adults, with little or no manufacturing experience](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-and-georgia-power-address-manufacturing-workforce-needs-through-accelerated-training/). College president Dr. Julie Post said it gives individuals [the opportunity to gain skills at no cost](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-and-georgia-power-address-manufacturing-workforce-needs-through-accelerated-training/). Its two phases, pre-apprenticeship and then [apprenticeship](https://www.metaintro.com/blog/national-apprenticeship-week-2026-where-to-apply), [are designed to prepare electrical and mechanical maintenance technicians in approximately eight months, compared with traditional pathways that may take up to 18 months](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-and-georgia-power-address-manufacturing-workforce-needs-through-accelerated-training/).

For the Accelerated Maintenance Technician training program, [information is available by email or phone from the college](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-and-georgia-power-address-manufacturing-workforce-needs-through-accelerated-training/). The college [offers more than 120 associate degree, diploma, and technical certificate programs of study](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-and-georgia-power-address-manufacturing-workforce-needs-through-accelerated-training/), with a campus in Troup County.

Georgia Power, [a named partner on the plant project](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point), [helped offset training costs for the initial cohort to reduce barriers for participants](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-and-georgia-power-address-manufacturing-workforce-needs-through-accelerated-training/), and [approximately five manufacturers have committed to hiring from the program](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-and-georgia-power-address-manufacturing-workforce-needs-through-accelerated-training/). Under the model, [successful completers are then hired by manufacturers and continue building skills through a structured apprenticeship](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-and-georgia-power-address-manufacturing-workforce-needs-through-accelerated-training/), and the college built the program after [regional workforce data and employer feedback identifying high turnover among maintenance technicians](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-and-georgia-power-address-manufacturing-workforce-needs-through-accelerated-training/).

## What Do State and Local Leaders Say About the Expansion?

Gov. Kemp tied the project to the wider auto cluster, saying [this facility will further enhance the strength of that ecosystem and allow Hyundai and Kia to grow their already impressive capacity here in Georgia](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point).

Jaekyun Choi, President of Hyundai Transys Georgia Powertrain, highlighted [Georgia’s exceptional workforce development infrastructure, business-friendly environment, and unique opportunities for growth](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point) and said the additional investment [marks an important milestone that demonstrates Hyundai Transys’ firm commitment to our long-term partnership with the State of Georgia](https://www.wtvm.com/2026/10/08/hyundai-transys-investing-nearly-560m-add-third-plant-320-jobs-west-point/).

Troup County Commission Chairman Patrick Crews called Hyundai Transys [an outstanding community partner](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point). GDEcD Commissioner Pat Wilson described the Hyundai Transys story as [a great example of long-term relationships, pro-business policies, and workforce training leading to long-term success](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point).

## What This Means for Job Seekers in West Georgia, and What Should You Do Next?

The facts are clear on the job types and thin on timing. The company [will be hiring for administrative, supervisory, and production positions](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point), yet [officials have not yet released a specific construction timeline](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia). That makes this a story to prepare for while [the hiring start date is still unclear](https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/kemp-announces-320-new-hyundai-transys-jobs-georgia).

- **Watch the right site.** The address named by the state is [www.hyundai-transys.com/en](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point). Search for Hyundai Transys Georgia Powertrain, not Kia, when you look for listings.
- **Know the local training link.** The free maintenance technician program at [West Georgia Technical College](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-launches-free-maintenance-technician-training-program/) lists Hyundai Transys Georgia Powertrain among the participating manufacturers completers will have the opportunity to interview with. For questions, [contact Steve Cromer by email](https://www.westgatech.edu/west-georgia-technical-college-launches-free-maintenance-technician-training-program/).
- **Know the training partner.** Georgia Quick Start, [a named project partner](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point), provides [customized, company-specific workforce training](https://www.georgiaquickstart.org/about-us), and its earlier Hyundai Transys courses for the Savannah Metaplant covered [safety and organizational development courses, such as Lean, 5S and workplace ethics](https://georgiaquickstart.org/projects/hyundai-transys/).
- **Do not trust invented pay.** No wage has been published in [the governor's release](https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2026-10-08/gov-kemp-hyundai-transys-bringing-320-new-jobs-west-point), so compare any figure you see against an official Hyundai Transys listing.
- **Keep the old numbers separate.** The [earlier project with 678 positions](https://thecitizen.com/?p=134034) is a different, earlier build, and it does not describe this round of hiring.
