Flores served as intendant of the Los Ríos Region from its creation in 2007 until his resignation in 2009. Flores resigned after being heavily criticized at a national level by the opposition after he was photographed with propaganda of Eduardo Frei's presidential campaign while he was on official duties.[4][5]

Iván Flores had previously served as provincial governor of Valdivia from 1998 to 2000.
