"We think of diversity here at J.P. Morgan as synonymous with talent. It's how we achieve our business objectives. When you hear these words, "diversity," "inclusion," etc., try replacing them with the word "talent" - and you'll understand what it means to us and what we're trying to do." - Pat David, Senior Diversity Adviser
Employees are our greatest asset, and we strive to attract talent from the broadest pool to foster innovation, creativity and productivity. There is tremendous power that results from this kind of diversity. In fact, creating a diverse and inclusive environment is critical to our success, and we are deeply committed to hiring and retaining employees from different backgrounds, experiences and locations.
Diversity brings together people with unique perspectives, and inclusion creates opportunities for all individuals to contribute and work together to achieve success as a whole. We believe working in an inclusive environment motivates exceptional effort, or – put more simply – it makes us all better at what we do.
Our diverse workforce helps our customers and business partners achieve their business goals. By recruiting the highest quality people who reflect the customers and communities that we serve, we increase our ability to deliver the best possible solutions.

“Today, the new era of disability inclusion is about ‘assimilation’ – hiring professionals with disabilities into the robust culture of the firm. Full assimilation requires a leadership team with the will, commitment and attitude to identify, train and groom professionals with disabilities for leadership positions at the firm as we do with mainstream employees.” – Jim Sinocchi, Head of the Office of Disability Inclusion
J.P. Morgan looks at the whole employee when they join the firm. We look first at what the individual can contribute to both our firm and clients. The firm makes it clear that we want people for their intellectual capacity and talent and we will do everything we can to accommodate them in a reasonable manner.
Our company has offices in more than 60 countries and reasonable accommodations are part of how we do business around the world. So, if a candidate has the talent and skills to do a job well, we want them. And, we will provide as many tools as we can to help them do their jobs to the best of their abilities.
American Foundation for the Blind recognised our commitment to providing accessible banking products and services to clients and employees.

“I think it’s always so important to see role models at each level in a company so people can come in and say ‘there’s someone who is like me and so there have to be opportunities for me,’” said CEO of Consumer & Community Banking Gordon Smith, who is also the Operating Committee sponsor of the Access Ability BRG, our company’s disability and caregiver business resource group.
