Before making his debut for Dundee United, McCallum had three separate spells out on loan, firstly he moved to Forfar Athletic for three months, on 31 December 2011.[2] During the 2012–13 season he spent time at both Peterhead[3] and Berwick Rangers.[4]

After spending many seasons on loan in the lower divisions or as an unused substitute, McCallum finally made his Dundee United debut on 6 May 2014, in a 3–1 Scottish Premiership defeat to Aberdeen.[5] On 13 May 2014, he signed a new contract keeping him at the club until 2016.[6]
