In 1778, he was hired by James Tod as a clerk at Quebec City. He later went into business on his own, involved in the fur trade and the importing of goods. In 1796, with Tod and others, he was purchased the fiefs of Grosse-Île and Granville. He married his cousin, Margaret Porteous, in 1798; she died the following year and their child died while still very young.

He later became a partner in the XY Company and then in the North West Company. Mure also took part in the timber trade. In 1799, he was named justice of the peace. In 1804, he was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Lower Canada for York in the Ottawa valley; he was reelected there in 1808 and 1809.
