After graduating from Satya Wacana Christian University (UKSW) with a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, GI Handojo started working at PT. Hartono Istana Electronics (Polytron) in Kudus City. After which, in 1996, he pursued a career in mobile telecommunications as the General Manager of the Global Teleshop Group (Cipta Multi Usaha Perkasa), overseeing after-sales service, information technology, HRD, and general affairs.
However, even during his college years, GI Handojo truly enjoyed teaching and felt that he was called to serve in education. That calling grew stronger and eventually in 2004, he decided to become a full time minister, pursuing a Master’s degree in Theology at the Indonesian Baptist Theological Seminary (STT Baptis Indonesia) in Semarang. After finishing his studies, he started serving as a director of operations at the MIKA Foundation (Makedonia Christian School, Ngabang, West Kalimantan) under the guidance of Rev. Bigman Sirait in 2007.
4 years later, he was requested to serve as a full-time pastor at the Church of Jesus Christ (GKY) Kebayoran Baru, and in 2015, the GKY Synod asked him to be part of IPEKA Christian School. Shortly after, GI Handojo was entrusted the monumental task of leading the school as its Chief Executive Officer in 2017, serving after his predecessor, Rev. Petroes St. Soerjo.
Handojo and his wife, Indriyati Agustine, are blessed with a son, Yosafat Hans Wijaya who is currently completing his studies at the University of Diponegoro, Semarang.
