Hanley made his Premier League debut for Rovers in a 1-0 win at Aston Villa on 9 May 2010.
Hanley committed his future when he signed a new five-year deal with Blackburn on 21 July 2010.
Hanley made his first Premier League appearance of season 2010-11 as a 67th-minute substitute in a 1-1 draw at home to West Ham United.
On 5 March 2011, Hanley scored his first goal for Rovers in a 3-2 defeat against Fulham at Craven Cottage.
That was the last of his nine Blackburn first team appearances that season although he was to make his international debut at the end of the season.
On 31 December 2011, Hanley started and scored the winning goal in a 3-2 win against local rivals Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Hanley made 28 appearances and scored one goal in all competitions for Rovers but the club was relegated into the Championship.
In the 2012-13 season Hanley maintained his first team place and formed a partnership with Scott Dann.
At the end of the season, he signed a five-year contract with the club.
After Dann left for Crystal Palace in January 2014, Hanley was appointed as the new captain of the club.
On 21 July 2016, Hanley signed for newly relegated Championship club Newcastle United on a five-year contract for an undisclosed fee.
On 30 August 2017, Hanley joined Norwich City on a four-year deal for an undisclosed fee.
He made his debut on 9 September 2017, coming on as a substitute in a 1-0 win over Birmingham City at Carrow Road. Although he had been something of an emergency buy, with Norwich having started the season with a number of injuries and playing inexperienced centre backs, Hanley soon became a regular in the team, often being deployed as one of three centre halves with Timm Klose and Christoph Zimmermann.
He ultimately made 32 league appearances for Norwich during the 2017-18 season, plus two in the FA Cup.
Ipswich had gone 1-0 up in the 89th minute and seemed set for a first win over Norwich in nine years.
Deep into added time, Hanley chased a ball to the byline and crossed it back into the goal area, allowing Klose to head it home for an equaliser.
The following month, on 17 March, Hanley scored his first goal for Norwich, the second in a 3-2 win over Reading.
At the beginning of the 2018-19 season, with Russell Martin leaving the club, Hanley was appointed Norwich's new club captain ahead of Ivo Pinto, who had deputised for Martin for much of the previous season.
He played in Norwich's opening six league games, getting his second goal for the club in a 4-3 defeat against West Bromwich Albion; however, he was then injured in training.
During his absence, Klose and Zimmermann established themselves at centre-back, with Ben Godfrey also becoming a regular choice, and Hanley was restricted to a few appearances as substitute on his return.
When he finally started a game, an FA Cup tie against Portsmouth, he was sent off in the first fifteen minutes for a professional foul on Ronan Curtis and Norwich went on to lose 1-0.
Despite his lack of game time, Hanley remained club captain as Norwich gained promotion to the Premier League.
In the final game of the season, as Norwich defeated Aston Villa 2-1, winning the Championship title, Hanley was brought on as an 89th minute substitute for Onel Hernandez and lifted the Championship trophy alongside team captain Zimmermann.
Hanley scored an own goal in a 4-1 defeat against Liverpool on 9 August, which was the first goal of the 2019-20 Premier League season.
He would later admit he had been injured at the start of the season.
Norwich suffered several injuries at centre-back throughout the season, with midfielders Alexander Tettey and Ibrahim Amadou both being deployed as makeshift centre-halves at various points.
As a result, despite not being an automatic choice, Hanley made 15 appearances in the season's first 29 league games, as well as helping Norwich reach their first FA Cup quarter-final in over 20 years with a goal in a 2-1 win over Burnley.
At that stage, the season was suspended because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
When it resumed after three months, Hanley was again injured.
He played no further part in the season as Norwich finished bottom of the Premier League and were relegated back to the Championship.
With the new season starting only two months later, Hanley would again start a season injured.
He would make his first appearance of the season on 17 October in Norwich's fifth game, a 2-1 win over Rotherham United.
With Godfrey having left the club, Klose absent on loan and Zimmermann absent through injury, Hanley spent most of the season partnered with Ben Gibson, as Norwich won the Football League Championship for the second time in three seasons.
He came second behind Emi Buendia in Norwich's Player of the Season vote and, after Norwich finished the season with a 2-2 draw with Barnsley, he lifted the trophy alongside outgoing teammate Tettey, who had been made captain for the game but had handed the armband back to Hanley when he was substituted in the 87th minute.
Ahead of Norwich's return to the Premier League, Hanley extended his contract with the club until 30 June 2025.
He scored his first goal of the season on 20 November in Norwich's 2-1 win against Southampton, the first game in charge for new manager Dean Smith.
On 1 February 2011, Hanley was called up to the senior Scotland squad for the first time ahead of the game against Northern Ireland in the Nations Cup.
His first Scotland goal was in his fifth full international when he opened the scoring in a 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifier at home against Wales on 22 March 2013 at Hampden Park.
