Holmes joined Ebbsfleet United in August 2019, making his debut in a 2–2 against Notts County. A week later, Holmes saved a second half penalty against Aldershot Town. He saved another penalty in a match against Wrexham, although it could not prevent a 1–0 loss.

Brisbane Roar

In August 2021, it was announced that Holmes would be leaving Ebbsfleet for an opportunity in his home country of Australia with A-League Men team Brisbane Roar. Holmes made 37 league appearances over two seasons with the club and left the club at the conclusion of the 2022-23 season.

Rochedale Rovers

Holmes has represented Australia at national level for the U19s and U20s in the Asian Championship and U20's World Cup qualifiers. In May 2015 Holmes was selected to play against Brazil for Australia's U20s at Win Stadium Wollongong. Although Australia were defeated 1–0, Holmes produced a man of the match performance pulling out a string of outstanding saves from Gabriel Jesus (Manchester City) and Andrea Pereira (Manchester United). Holmes is currently vice captain of the U23 Australian Olyroos.

Holmes qualified for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. He was part of the Olyroos Olympic squad. The team beat Argentina in their first group match but were unable to win another match. They were therefore not in medal contention.
