Urfuture was founded by CEO Tom Keighley, whose work in the talent space dates back to 2011, alongside COO Jayel Williams and CCO Holly Hobbs. Urfuture was founded in Preston and moved to Manchester at the start of the year. The HR startup raised £1.7m in seed investment in April 2026, as it looks to replace CVs and job boards with tech solutions for the AI era. River Capital led the investment.
