Between 2015 and 2019 he played for Leicester Tigers in England's Premiership Rugby.

He was signed for the Blues for the 2013 season.[4] O'Connor would go on to win over 40 Super Rugby caps for the Blues, winning the Blues MVP Award and Player's Player award in 2015.[5] He has also played for Hawke's Bay in the ITM Cup. He had previously played for Canterbury in 2010 and 2011.[6]

O'Connor joined English club Leicester Tigers for the 2015-2016 Aviva Premiership season.[7] O'Connor made his debut for Leicester Tigers on 13 November 2015 in the opening match of the European Rugby Champions Cup at Welford Road. O'Connor impressed on his debut, winning crucial turnovers, and scoring a try.[8] On 15 May 2019 he was announced as one of the players to leave Leicester following the end of the 2018–19 Premiership Rugby season.[9]

On 7 June 2019, O'Connor re-signed with Hawke's Bay in New Zealand.[10]
