Starting his career at Irvine Meadow, Hamilton moved to Queen of the South, showcasing his ambidextrous skills and scoring nine goals in a single season, before joining Aberdeen in 1938. His playing career, disrupted by World War II, included time at Ayr United and Rangers, before returning to Aberdeen to achieve notable success including winning the Scottish Cup in 1947. Hamilton later played for Heart of Midlothian and returned to Aberdeen, contributing to their success until moving to Hamilton Academical, where he retired.
