Referral bonuses available to CU staff
The division of Infrastructure and Sustainability has several open positions and we need your help recruiting. If you know anyone who might be interested in applying for one (or more) of the positions listed below, please encourage them to apply. Be sure they include your name on the application when they apply so that you get the referral bonus after they complete the time period listed below. Please note an employee can only earn one referral bonus for a new hire (meaning they cannot get two referral bonuses for the same employee). If an employee is re-hired (who had earned a referral bonus previously), a current employee (even if he/she is not the original referrer), cannot earn a second referral bonus for the re-hired staff member. As a reminder, the CU Boulder HR promotions and transfers webpage outlines how employees may express interest in other transfer and promotional opportunities.
Buff Bus Drivers
$500 referral bonuses are available to current CU staff who refer new (not returning) CDL-licensed bus drivers to our team: a one-time $500 bonus will be paid out to the referring employee after the new hire reaches six months of employment. Bus driver bonuses do not apply to referrals for CDL-trainees.
Groundskeepers
$200 referral bonuses are available to current CU staff: a one-time $200 bonus will be paid out to the referring employee after the new recruit reaches three months of employment.
Custodians
$200 referral bonuses are available to current CU staff who refer new custodians to our team: a one-time $200 bonus will be paid out to the referring employee after the new recruit reaches three months of employment.
Material Handlers
$300 referral bonuses are available to current CU staff who refer new material handlers to our team: a one-time $300 bonus will be paid out to the referring employee after the new recruit reaches six months of employment.
Trades (Mechanics/Journeyman/Technicians)
$500 referral bonuses are available to current CU staff who refer new trades workers to our team: a one-time $500 bonus will be paid out to the referring employee after the new recruit reaches six months of employment. Referral-eligible trades positions include mechanics, journeymen, and technicians.
We are offering these referral bonuses to any current CU staff member (classified or University staff) in a .50 FTE (50%) or greater position. Anyone involved in the hiring process for the positions above (including direct supervisors, hiring managers, appointing authorities and HR) will not be eligible for the referral bonus program. New recruits must come from outside the Infrastructure & Sustainability team. If a current Facilities Management staff member is being promoted or transferred into one of the positions above, neither that person, nor that person’s colleagues, are eligible for referral bonuses.
