Born in Utrecht, Ivar is a footballer of Indonesian descent. Ivar's Indonesian descent comes from his paternal grandmother, who was born in Java.
In an interview he said, "My father's mother or my grandmother was born in Java (Jember). So, my father is half Indonesian and I am a quarter Indonesian. My mother's parents are from Netherlands. So my Dutch side came from my mother".[4]
On 22 May 2023, Ivar officially acquired Indonesian citizenship.[5]
Ivar played for IJsselstein-based academy side IJFC and Ajax before a move to Utrecht in 2016.[4][6] He signed his first professional contract in May 2021.[6]

Although Jenner still holds the Netherlands passport, on 17 November 2022, he played for the Indonesia U-20 in a losing effort, 0–6 against France U-20 in a friendly match in Spain.[9] He also played against Slovakia U-20 two days later, in a 1–2 loss.[10]
