Job and Career Resources for People Moving In

Colorado runs a real support system for job seekers, and almost all of it is free. Most people never hear about it because it's scattered across three state agencies. Here it is in one place.

Relocating or Expanding a Company in Colorado

Jesse Dean is a commercial real estate broker with eXp Commercial. For companies moving to Colorado he handles three things that are usually three separate headaches: the building, the incentive process, and housing for the people coming with you.

Where should your company land?

A first-pass screen of all 64 counties from live data: wages, labor pool, colleges, incentive zones, interstates, and airports. Real site selection weighs your freight, utilities, and space needs; that's the 15-minute call. This narrows the map.

The Space

Office, industrial, flex, and retail site searches statewide, with submarket data and lease or purchase negotiation.

Your Employees' Housing

Each relocating employee is matched with a vetted local agent in their area and price range. No cost to the company or the employee, and HR gets one contact instead of thirty questions.

The Incentives & Workforce

State tax credits, local cash, training grants, and free hiring help, identified before you announce the move. Several programs are forfeited if the announcement comes first.

Colorado's Incentive & Workforce Programs

The state's standing programs as of August 2026, in plain language: what each one is, what it's worth, and the catch. County and city incentives are negotiated case by case. Each county's local programs, incentive contact, and workforce center are on the county map.

Where are you looking?

The order of operations matters. The Job Growth credit and Strategic Fund require approval before a move is announced or started, and WOTC applications still have a 28-day filing window from each hire even while the credit is in hiatus. Program terms verified against OEDIT, CDLE, IRS, DOL and Colorado Department of Revenue sources in August 2026; current terms get confirmed with the state as part of any engagement.
