McGurk was signed by Aston Villa in 2004 from Larne Youth.
McGurk was impressive for Aston Villa Reserves in the 2006/07 season, making 7 appearances (4 of which were from the substitutes bench) and scoring 4 goals. He suffered a serious knee injury and was out injured for a long time. After making his comeback McGurk struggled to force his way back into the Aston Villa Reserve team and become a regular again.
He was released by Villa towards the end of the 2009/10 season. McGurk then made a couple of trial appearances for Tranmere Rovers during the summer and trained with the squad. Tranmere later went on to sign him on a non-contract basis.[1]
He made his debut for Rovers on 21 August 2010 in the Football League One clash with Bournemouth which ended in a 3–0 home defeat at Prenton Park, coming on as a second half substitute for Ian Thomas-Moore.
He signed a one-year permanent deal with Tranmere on 23 August 2010.[2]
McGurk has U16 and U17 caps and has also represented Northern Ireland at U21 level.
