Townsend-West joined the Stevenage youth academy after academy scouts saw him playing in a trial game in 2019.[4] Academy manager Robbie O'Keefe stated that Townsend-West had impressed with his "raw pace" and technical ability in the trial match.[4]
Whilst still a first-year scholar in the club's academy,[2] Townsend-West was an unused substitute for the first-team's 2–0 away defeat away at Peterborough United in the FA Cup on 19 November 2019.[2][5] He made his professional debut in the club's 3–2 EFL Trophy defeat against Milton Keynes Dons at Broadhall Way on 6 October 2020.[6] Townsend-West signed his first professional contract with Stevenage on 15 October 2020.[4] He made one appearance during the 2021–22 season, missing eight months of the season due to injury,[7] and was retained by the club in May 2022.[8]
Ahead of the 2022–23 season, Stevenage manager Steve Evans stated Townsend-West would leave the club on loan, once he had recovered from a "small knock" sustained in pre-season, in order to gain first-team experience.[9][10] He joined National League South club St Albans City on 5 August 2022, on a loan agreement until January 2023.[10]
