Tůma is a graduate of the Faculty of Trade at the University of Economics, Prague. Then he joined Institute for Forecasting of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences as a researcher. From 1993 to 1995 he was an advisor to the Minister of Industry and Trade. Before joining the Czech National Bank he held a position in the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development.

He was a TOP 09 party nominee for the Mayor office of the Czech capital Prague in Czech local elections (October 2010).

In 2016 Tůma was awarded by Hanno R. Ellenbogen Citizenship Award for his dedication to public service.
