He began his career with Sale Sharks in the Aviva Premiership, but moved to London Wasps for the 2012/2013 season, playing alongside his brother Chris Bell.[1]

On 6 June 2014, Bell made his move to the RFU Championship as he signed a contract with Jersey.[2] However, after a month with Jersey, Bell was granted early release from his contract since a top flight club made an approach to him where he would officially move to Leicester Tigers.[3]

On 17 February 2016, Bell agreed to a long-term deal with London Irish from the 2016–17 season.[4]

He joined RFU Championship side Ealing Trailfinders for the 2019–20 season.[5]
