He began his career in 1983 in the Australian television soap opera Sons and Daughters.

After completing George Miller's film Bushfire Moon (Miracle Down Under) in 1987, a chance meeting with British comedy legend Ray Cooney led to a three-year stint in the UK where he appeared in several of Ray's plays: It Runs In The Family, Wife Begins At Forty, the latter alongside the great Jimmy Edwards, as well as TV programs such as Casualty and Shelley.

He returned to Australia in 1990 to become the host of the ABC children's television program Couch Potato.

This trend continued beyond 2000 with appearances in Blue Heelers again, Marshall Law, Stingers, Crashburn, Headland, Rain Shadow, The Librarians, The Elephant Princess, Sea Patrol, and most recently Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries.
