Riva Careers

Ending the ‘Negotiation Gap’ to help people of all backgrounds earn what they’re truly worth.

Venture-backed & mission-driven, Riva uses HBS negotiation expertise to help close the pay gap by giving users of all backgrounds the tools they need to ask for more from their employers – and get it.

Founded by the world’s leading negotiation experts, we partner with our clients to develop a custom-tailored strategy for increasing their compensation. Since we get paid only when our clients earn more, we’re truly on the same team – and our glowing reviews reflect this commitment.

Our approach has already helped more than 5,000 people land an average pay bump over $20k. We’re growing quickly and looking for passionate, results-oriented team players to join Team Riva!

Value the human

We value the human aspect of negotiation, sitting side-by-side with our clients as trusted coaches through some of life’s most personal and rewarding discussions.

Operational excellence

As with life itself, negotiation can be a messy process. Riva runs a tight ship to ensure that our offering grows into its full potential at the service of our clients. Attention to the details of our internal & external operations is one of the key priorities that infuses and informs everything we do.

Pride in the mission

When we help someone early what they're truly worth, we set them down a lifelong path of equity. Although that can sound warm and fuzzy, our impact certainly isn't measured in hugs and rainbows, but rather in cold hard cash. This benefits the individual, their family, and their community throughout the rest of their career.
