Reading
Born in Sandown, Isle of Wight,[2] Moore began his career in the youth system at Brading Town before moving to Portsmouth.[3] He then joined Reading in September 2011 at the age of 17 on a three-year scholarship, culminating with a one-year professional contract.[4] Moore joined Southern League Division One South & West club Hungerford Town on loan later that month.[5] He debuted in a replay against Weymouth in the FA Cup second qualifying round, in which he made a number of saves, with Hungerford losing 3–1.[6] The following season saw Moore loaned to Southern League Premier Division club Bashley, finishing the loan with 33 appearances.[7]
On 17 February 2014, Moore joined Conference North club Gloucester City on a one-month loan.[8] He debuted a day later in a 3–1 defeat at home to Barrow.[9] Moore returned to Reading after being recalled from his loan on 14 March, which he finished with four appearances.[9][10] He was then loaned to Conference South club Bath City on 27 March until the end of 2013–14.[11] Moore made his league debut on 5 April in a 2–1 victory at home to Eastbourne Borough.[12] He was sent off in the 63rd minute of a 3–1 defeat away to Gosport Borough on 19 April for raising his arm in the direction of a Gosport player, which resulted in him being suspended for Bath's final matches of the season.[13] Moore completed the loan spell with four appearances.[12] He signed a new one-year contract with Reading ahead of 2014–15.[14] On 7 August 2014, Moore joined Conference South club Basingstoke Town on a season-long loan.[15] He debuted on 23 August in a 2–0 win at home to Hayes & Yeading United.[7] Moore completed the loan spell with 48 appearances, which included both legs of the play-off semi-final defeat to Whitehawk, losing 2–1 on aggregate.[7] He was named as Basingstoke's Player of the Year, voted for by the club's supporters.[16]
On 27 February 2016, Moore joined League One club Peterborough United on a 28-day emergency loan.[17] He debuted later that day in a 2–1 defeat at home to Swindon Town,[18] finishing the loan with four appearances.[19] On 31 January 2017, Moore joined League Two club Luton Town on loan until the end of 2016–17.[20] He debuted later that day in Luton's 3–2 defeat at home to Cheltenham Town.[21] Moore played in both legs of the play-off semi-final defeat to Blackpool, losing 6–5 on aggregate,[22][23] and completed the loan spell with 10 appearances.[24] He was released by Reading when his contract expired at the end of 2016–17.[25]

Moore signed for League Two club Swindon Town on 27 January 2018 on a contract until the end of 2017–18.[28] He was offered a new contract by Swindon at the end of the 2017–18 season.[29]
Milton Keynes Dons
On 2 August 2018, Moore signed for newly-relegated League Two club Milton Keynes Dons.[30] Due to impressive performances, Moore temporarily became first choice goalkeeper for the club and made six league appearances during the successful 2018–19 promotion-winning season.
