After university graduation, Ibrahim rose to the position of Vice President at the leading financial advisory and asset management company Lazard.

In this period, Ibrahim clinched many awards such as ‘20 Rising Stars of Hedge Funds – Institutional Investors’ Magazine (2007).
Moving on to the hospitality sector actively from 2012, Ibrahim acquired and assumed position of President Director at Bintan Lagoon Resort, a 500-room Indonesian resort with 2 golf courses and 14 restaurants. Ibrahim established Mozaic Hotels & Resorts to handle the sales, marketing and public relations aspects of the business.
