Hi Casey Our company 2Vouch is an Aussie start-up that has build a job referral site to do exactly what you've outlined below, but rather than just forwarding an email - we have built a platform that allows the advertiser and the referrer to track and monitor the job referrals they make and receive - referrers receive rewards that they can take in cash or donate to charity.
We recently posted an offer here http://tinyurl.com/6rjrbl for all Aussie start-ups, basically the offer is free job listings and you only pay if someone successfully refers a candidate to you that you hire - and you only pay our cost price which is the referrer reward which is between $1,400-$2,800 depending on the salary range of the job. We would really appreciate the support of this community in helping us get this off the ground.
