Jobert was born in Paris to Véronique Mucret Rouveyrollis, a photographer, musician, writer, actress, and director, and Charles Jobert, a camera operator and director of photography. Her father is from a Sephardic Jewish and Pied-Noir family from Algeria, and her mother's ancestry is Martiniquaise, Spanish and Chinese. Jobert comes from a family of performing artists, including her paternal aunt Marlène Jobert and cousins Eva Green and Elsa Lunghini.
In 1997, aged 12, Jobert moved with her parents to Montreal, Canada for eight years, where she studied singing and acting, and took her first steps into television. With her friends and her parents, she participated in the creation of songs, videos, a web series, and a television series on the internet. She attended drama workshops by Stéphane Belugou as well as Coda Music School.
From 2008 to 2014, Jobert had steady work in various French television series. She took on her first English-language role as Detective Sergeant Florence Cassell in the BBC One series Death in Paradise at the beginning of its fourth season in 2015. She left the show for "personal and professional reasons" after episode six of the eighth season in 2019, but returned for the tenth season in 2021. She is also in the 11th season and made her final appearance on the fourth episode of that series.
