Livesey started his career at Bolton Wanderers, and made his league debut at the Reebok in a 3–2 defeat versus Liverpool at 17 (one of the youngest Premiership and Wanderers players ever). He only made one more league appearance and a couple of cup appearances, and joined Rochdale and Notts County on loan in 2003 and 2004, respectively. After this, he joined Blackpool on loan, but in his debut he suffered a serious injury and returned to the Trotters.
On Christmas Eve 2004, Livesey signed for Carlisle United, who were then in the Conference and since joining has played a major part in the club's rise to League One and in August 2007, signed a contract extension until 2010.[2] Livesey was named in the League One 2007–08 team of the year. He was also awarded the captaincy due to Paul Thirlwell's injury problems. On 4 June 2012, Livesey signed a new 1-year deal with Carlisle United with the option of a further year.

Following the departure of Simon Grand at the end of the 2015–16 season Livesey was made the club captain, but was released when his contract expired at the end of 2016–17.[4]
After this release from Barrow, he joined Salford City on a two-year contract.[5]
On 26 July 2018 he joined Chester on a season-long loan along with fellow player Anthony Dudley, reuniting them with their former Salford managers.[6]
At the end of the season, Chester confirmed both players had returned to their parent club.[7]
