In 1984 she began work as a social worker for the London Borough of Ealing.
She was elected as a councillor to Newham London Borough Council in 1988.
She unsuccessfully contested Wanstead and Woodford at the 1992 general election but was beaten by 16,885 votes by the Conservative James Arbuthnot.
In 2005, West Ham MP Tony Banks retired and Lyn Brown was selected to contest the safe Labour seat through an all-women shortlist.
Lyn Brown became the seat's MP at the 2005 general election with a majority of 9,801 votes.
She made her maiden speech on 23 May 2005.

In June 2009 she was promoted to become an Assistant Government Whip.
Until May 2009, Brown rented a central London flat using the second home allowance, despite her constituency being only 6 miles from Westminster.
Brown's hobbies include reading crime fiction and walking.
She remained as a whip, in opposition, following the 2010 general election.
In June 2011, Brown was criticised by campaigners for recruiting an unpaid intern whilst also supporting "a living wage for all".
Gus Baker of Intern Aware stated Brown had replaced a paid member of staff with an unpaid intern, accusing her of double hypocrisy and noting how such conduct denied opportunities to poorer people such as those from Brown's constituency.
Brown stated she "would like to pay everyone" in her office, but "did not have the resources to do so".
In October 2013, Brown was appointed by Ed Miliband to serve as Shadow Minister for Communities and Local Government.
A member of the Labour Party, she was a Shadow Minister for the Home Office from 2015 to 2016, Shadow Policing Minister from 2016 to 2017, Shadow Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury from 2018 to 2020, and Shadow Minister for Prisons and Probation from 2020 to 2021.

She was educated at Drew Road Primary School, Silvertown and Plashet Comprehensive School before attending the Whitelands College, Putney (now part of Roehampton University).
In September 2015, she was appointed as a Shadow Home Office Minister by Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, a position from which she resigned on 28 June 2016, before subsequently supporting Owen Smith in the 2016 Labour Party (UK) leadership election.
In October 2016, Corbyn reappointed Brown to serve as a Shadow Minister, as Shadow Minister for Policing, during which time, Brown temporarily replaced Diane Abbott as Shadow Home Secretary during a period of ill health for Abbott.
