MacIver embarked on his professional journey in July 2017 when he joined Ross County. After an initial stint there, he was loaned to Forfar Athletic in January 2018. Following the completion of his loan period, he returned to Ross County in June 2018. His performance there secured him a loan to Elgin City, another Championship club in Scotland, in February 2019.
In August 2019, MacIver saw a permanent change as he moved from Ross County to Motherwell in the Premiership. During his time at Motherwell between 2019 and 2021, MacIver made a total of eight appearances, scoring one goal.

Seeking regular first team action, MacIver transferred to Partick Thistle on loan in March 2021, before moving permanently in July the same year.
