After graduating from university, Aryo founded a company in 2007 with some friends, and he became its CEO. The company operated in various fields, but by 2008 Aryo and his friends joined his father's company which was expanding in Indonesia. Aryo is also CEO of Arsari Tambang, the group's mining arm which operates tin mines. Outside of business, Aryo also joined the newly-established
Gerindra, which was founded in 2008 by his father and his uncle
Prabowo Subianto, becoming the chairman of its youth wing — though not formally so until 2011.
Legislature Aryo ran in the
2014 Indonesian legislative election for Jakarta's 3rd electoral district. He won 53,268 votes and secured a seat at the
People's Representative Council. He became a member of the body's seventh commission on Energy, Research and Technology, and the Environment. During
Joko Widodo's presidency, he criticized the appointment of
Badrodin Haiti as police chief in 2015, saying that it damaged the fight against corruption. In 2016, he also criticized the Provincial Government of Jakarta under
Basuki Tjahaja Purnama for removing
property tax, noting that the removal of the revenue source would jeopardize funding for other projects and commenting that the move was made for political reasons. Aryo also became part of a special committee assessing the creation to limit the production and consumption of alcohol. He did not run for reelection in 2019.
Sport Aryo Djojohadikusumo serves as the General Chair of the Central Board of the
