Nadya used to be an office worker with her 9-to-6 schedule in one of the Big Four firms, but she felt like a fish out of water there. Everything changed after she decided to be a volunteer at the Olympic Games in 2012. The Olympic spirit and the atmosphere of the event enticed her so much that she joined the Olympic Committee team. And after the Olympic Games in Sochi, she got into Accord. One event followed the other: races, Olympics, football cups… Each of them was like a breath of fresh air for Nadya and she felt like she was finally in the right place.
Nadya pays attention to every detail, even the least remarkable one, and figures out the solution in every situation. Her motto is “Do the best or just don’t start”. She says that there’s nothing special: just do everything on time and take the headache of your customers away, and all will be fine. It surely works.
Nadya likes traveling: for example, she climbed Mount Kilimanjaro, had a picnic on a French beach, and went hiking in the Amazon rainforest. When she goes to a new country as a partner researcher or just a visitor, she tries to learn some words from the local language just to understand people better.

Yulia started working with international guests when she was a university student: she participated in international conferences and used to be a volunteer in different projects. Her first job was as a VIP hospitality manager — she had been working with foreign guests in her hometown for several years.
In 2013, Yulia changed her job and got into the Olympic Organizing Committee, so she knows the Olympic sports life inside out. She says that the key points in her work are communication, planning, and the ability to adapt to changing environments. Yulia is always “on alert”, so if something doesn’t go as planned, she’s ready for action.
In her free time, Yulia enjoys horse-riding. She says it gives her a deeper understanding of a true partnership and trust that can be easily applicable to her daily work. Her other hobby is traveling which is partially backed up by her job. Being a part of the international company gives Yulia a lot of opportunities to look into different traditions and backgrounds. “It is so great to meet new people who share their customs, knowledge, and experience. By learning from them, I’m growing myself”, says Yulia.
Evgeniy joined the Accord team in 2016, and his professional growth was incredibly fast due to his soft skills. He was hired as a customer support manager and, at first, he thought it was a part-time job. But shortly thereafter he changed his mind.
In 2017, while preparing for Confederation Cup, he got his first promotion. The second one — just before FIFA 2018. Then, while the team was preparing for the event and every day kept bringing new brain teasers, Evgeniy showed himself as a great business puzzle solver and eventually got the third promotion. He became head of the corporate segment department — at the age of 23!
Since then, he has been constantly searching for new opportunities for the company to expand. Nothing could be done without the team, says Evgeniy, and there’s much more to do in the future, but with Accord, it is possible to handle anything.
Evgeniy enjoys his free time writing a book. It’s a detective, and the author takes inspiration for the characters from his colleagues. Evgeniy also likes cooking: his specialties are charlotte (a kind of an apple pie) and oriental-style beef.
