Meet our Employees who are Making History - Jamaal Chinn 😎, Director of E-Commerce Marketplaces What I do at Ancestry: As the Director of E-Commerce Marketplaces, I have the privilege of driving the purchase of our DNA kits through online retail channels. I lead the sales, marketing, partnerships, technology, operations, and strategy with the world's largest retailer partners, including Amazon, Walmart, and Target. What I love about my job: The greatest joy of my job is that I get to wear multiple hats, as my role encompasses sales, advertising, merchandising, and operations. Each week brings new challenges that allow me to be creative. We are a solution-driven organization, and I enjoy collaborating with different teams across the business. Why Ancestry?: For me, it is the impact we have on individuals during their journey of discovery. The stories I've heard from people in public once they find out I work for Ancestry are incredible!

Today in honor of International Holocaust Remembrance Day and the 80th anniversary of Auschwitz's liberation, Ancestry opened its doors to the new Ancestry Research & Reflection Room at the Center for Jewish History (CJH), a new space and initiative to collect, preserve, and share the family histories of Jewish communities worldwide. “As we approach the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz and recognize that the youngest Holocaust survivors are now in their 80s, preservation is more urgent than ever so that we never forget this history. We are deeply grateful to our partners at the Center for Jewish History for their shared commitment to honoring the histories of those who perished, as well as the survivors.” - Howard Hochhauser, Chief Operating Officer and incoming Chief Executive Officer at Ancestry. We welcome you to come and explore the space now through 2025. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/gWg83Yai

Ancestry UK is on a mission to inspire families around the country to ask their elders meaningful questions about the lives they have lived. With just one fifth of UK adults admitting to having this kind of chat with their loved ones as little as once a year, we are encouraging people to carve out time to really find out what our parents and older relatives did when they were younger; starting conversations around their hopes dreams and greatest achievements have been, and in doing so capture the stories for future generations. Ancestry has partnered with care home network Barchester Healthcare Homes and TV’s Anna Richardson, whose own father is suffering from dementia. Ancestry experts recently visited a care home in Twickenham to help their residents get set up on Ancestry. A highlight of the day was finding a newspaper article in a 1958 edition of Kensington + Chelsea News featuring a resident who had an early career in acting and dance. With over 60 billion records and incredible resources such as newspapers.com Ancestry is a fantastic place to uncover our ancestors and living relatives’ stories. #WeAreAncestry
