= Police
=Hurley served in the Metropolitan Police from 1979 to 2011, when he retired with the rank of Detective Chief Superintendent, having served in his last three years as Borough Commander for Hammersmith and Fulham. From 2001 to 2005 he was the Head of the Counter Terrorism and Public Order Department for the City of London Police.
In 2006 while Chief Superintendent, Hurley gave a speech at the opening of the Church of Scientology's London headquarters, where he described the group as a "force for good" that were "raising the spiritual wealth of society:.
= Politics
=Hurley sought the nomination as Conservative Party candidate for Police and Crime Commissioner of Surrey Police in the 2012 Police and Crime Commissioner elections. However, he was defeated in the selection process by Julie Iles. He stood as an independent, appearing on the ballot paper as the Zero Tolerance Policing ex Chief candidate, a registered political party in the United Kingdom of which he is the leader. On 15 November 2012, he won the election with a majority of 7,725.
During his term as PCC Hurley became involved in a public dispute with his then Chief Constable, Lynne Owens, following an external report which criticised Surrey Police for failings around organised crime and child protection. Upon Owens' appointment as Director-General of the National Crime Agency he clashed with the Home Secretary, Theresa May, over his criticism of Owens. Hurley demanded an apology after May described his "attacks" on Owens as one of a "number of incidents" which had given PCCs a bad name.
In 2016 Hurley gained national attention for saying he wanted to "batter and break the legs" of a man convicted of a stabbing.
In the 2016 England and Wales PCC elections, Hurley's party, Zero Tolerance Policing ex Chief, stood candidates in the Surrey, Hampshire and Essex police authorities with Hurley himself standing for re-election in Surrey.
None of the party's candidates were elected and Hurley was defeated by David Munro in the second round of vote counting.
