He graduated in 1983 from the Russian State University of Physical Education, Sport, Youth and Tourism, with a degree in physical education and sport. Guryev was further educated at the University of Greenwich, where he graduated with a bachelor's degree in economics in 2003, as well as at the Russian Government Academy of National Economy, graduating in 2004, and at St. Petersburg National Mineral Resources University, where he graduated with post-graduate certificate in Economics in 2010.

Between 2011 and 2013 Guryev served as a Member of the Federation Council from the executive branch of the Murmansk oblast government.
In 2012, PhosAgro purchased 20% of Apatit. Guryev led a management buyout to acquire control of Apatit and PhosAgro, and now owns 100% of the company.
In 2013, Andrey Guryev was appointed Deputy Chairman of PhosAgro's Board of Directors. This came after he made the decision to step down as Senator, citing the new laws regarding foreign bank account owned by Russian entrepreneurs as his reason for stepping down after 11 years as a Politician.

In July 2016, Forbes estimated his net worth at US$4.3 billion.
PhosAgro is structured so that Guryev and his family are recipients of a trust, rather than outright ownership in their names, though Evgenia Guryev, Guryev’s wife, owns 4.82% of PhosAgro in her own name.
