Driss Ben-Brahim is employed by London-based GLG Partners. He was a former partner and head of Goldman Sachs trading, based in London, England. He was the "toast of the City of London" in 2003 when he received what was then the largest bonus in the City's history — £30M.

On the 13 December 2006 Ben-Brahim was reported to have been paid a record £50m bonus as the head of the proprietary trading desk at Goldman Sachs in London. It is reported to be the largest ever bonus in the city, and one newspaper, London Lite, commented that this is 2,000 times more than the average UK wage. However, Goldman Sachs denied the amount of the bonus.

Ben-Brahim was educated at the École centrale Paris and INSEAD.
