Born in Newcastle upon Tyne,[5] Grey signed for Hartlepool's youth team in 2019 and turned professional a year early due to interest from other clubs.[6] On signing for the club Grey stated, “I’m over the moon to finally get this done, Hartlepool have been great to me and I was excited to be around the first team at different times last season and now during pre season. I want to continue working and get more opportunities when the season starts”.[7] He made his league debut in a 4–0 win over Maidenhead United.[8] Grey got his first senior goal in a 6–0 thrashing of Northern Premier League team Ilkeston Town in the FA Cup fourth qualifying round.[9] Grey's first league goal came in a 2–1 defeat to Eastleigh.[10]

On 8 January 2022, Grey scored the winner in a 2–1 win over Championship team Blackpool as a substitute in the third round of the FA Cup.[11] It was his first goal of the season. On 25 January 2022, Grey scored again as Hartlepool reached the semi-finals of the EFL Trophy after defeating Charlton Athletic on penalties.[12]

On 23 June 2022, Grey signed a new three-year deal with Hartlepool.[13]
