Career Murray was chief executive of Big Technologies plc, the parent company of Buddi Ltd, incorporated in 2017, which listed on the London Stock Exchange in July 2021, raising £577 million.

On 18 March 2025, Murray was suspended as chief executive with the company stating it "could no longer rely" on a statement she had signed in relation to her connections with a network of "opaque" offshore shell companies.
