From 1960 to 1967, he was employed in chemistry and construction industries in Sverdlovsk. He occupied various posts in the Sverdlovsk Communist Party of the Soviet Union), where Boris Yeltsin made a party career, rising up to the regional party head.

With Silayev's resignation on 26 September 1991 Lobov became de facto acting prime minister of Russia. He kept the position until the formation of the reformist cabinet on 6 November and final resignation of Silayev's second cabinet on 15 November.[1][3]
From 1991 to 1995, Lobov actively helped Aum Shinrikyo, a Japanese new religious movement, to establish operations in Russia. According to allegations made in the United States Senate in 1995, Lobov's relationship with Aum began in December 1991 and continued to 1995. Lobov was accused of receiving cash advances from Aum and of regularly meeting with Aum "minister of construction" Kiyohide Hayakawa. Lobov allegedly met with Shoko Asahara in Japan and arranged Asahara's own visit to Russia in 1992.[4][5]
