While he studied at The National Theatre Drama School, Greenslade performed in a show directed by Francis Greenslade, to whom he is not related despite sharing a surname.[2][3] Years later, during the pre-production of Mad as Hell, Francis remembered and recommended Tosh to Micallef. Greenslade auditioned for the show and was cast as a member of the core ensemble. It was his first television appearance.[4] On Mad as Hell, he played a diverse range of characters, such as advertising guru Flornoy Quimbie and ranting idiophobe Caspar Jonquil.[2]
He played the role of Marcus in Paper Giants: Magazine Wars (2013). In 2014, he appeared twice as a panelist on Dirty Laundry Live and was a guest on Live on Bowen. In 2015, as well as appearing in season 5 of Mad as Hell, he played the role of Phil in the movie, The Subjects.[5] He authored the 2020 satirical novel The Scomo Diaries published by Penguin Random House.[6]
Greenslade left the entertainment profession after Mad As Hell ended and became a copywriter working for Dentsu Creative.[7]
