Jonathan Chen

In order to improve representation at IHS Markit and provide a forum for ethnic minority colleagues to connect and appreciate each other’s cultures, Jonathan joined the Steering Committees of the EMpower and ASPIRE affinity groups. Together with the groups’ members, he worked to promote awareness by chairing sharing circles and webinars, moderating speaker panels as well as advancing the partnership with SEO London to encourage the recruitment of students from ethnic minorities and low socio-economic backgrounds. The result of this partnership has been a shortlist of 43 candidates who applied through the SEO scheme now proceeding to final interviews for positions across the firm. The groups Jonathan steers have also worked to raise awareness and funds to combat anti-Asian sentiment and API violence. Jonathan is also a volunteer at End the Virus of Racism, a UK ESEA community advocacy group.
