Medvec & Associates is a leading global consultancy specializing in negotiation, sales, organizational decision-making, and influencing skills. Our firm partners with Fortune 100 companies, high-growth organizations, boards of directors, and senior executives worldwide to drive measurable results in high-stakes negotiations and critical business decisions.

Founded by Dr. Victoria Medvec, a world-renowned expert in high-stakes negotiation and decision-making, Medvec & Associates has worked with more than one-third of the Fortune 100 companies and trained over 50,000 professionals. Our firm has advised on more than $60 billion in deals and continues to provide cutting-edge strategies that empower organizations to negotiate stronger, influence effectively, and maximize outcomes.

Our success is driven by a team including incredible Senior Principals, each bringing deep expertise across procurement, real estate, finance, private equity, and strategic decision-making. This diverse team enables us to offer highly customized and high-impact solutions that address the unique challenges faced by today’s businesses.

At Medvec & Associates, we are passionate about equipping organizations with the skills and strategies they need to succeed in today’s complex business landscape.

Who We Are Looking For

We are looking for an bright, driven, organized, and detail-oriented individual with an exceptional work ethic and passion for the world of business. In this position, you will work with Fortune 500 companies across multiple industries and functions such as real estate, healthcare, energy, tech, CPG, and private equity. The pace is fast, with the opportunity to learn more in one year at Medvec & Associates than usually available in three years at typical professional services firms through the exposure to Dr. Medvec’s sessions, training, consulting, and MBA classes. Not only will the Managing Director have the chance to be exposed to deal making at the C-suite level, but will also have the advantage of sharpening personal negotiation and decision-making skills.
