Hislop first came through the ranks at Edinburgh Rugby earning international recognition for Scotland at Under 17, 18 and 20 level, eventually going on to Captain the U20s.

In 2023, he helped Saracens win the Premiership title, featuring as a replacement in the final as Saracens defeated Sale Sharks. Hislop was sin-binned for the last few minutes of the game but this didn't prevent Saracens holding on for victory.[5]
