Arthur broke into the Celtic first team aged 17, coming through the club's Youth Academy. In December 2014, Arthur transferred together with Heather Richards from Celtic to Hibernian,[2] where she was part of the team that reached the Scottish Cup final and finished second in the league.[3]
In January 2016, after a year in Edinburgh, she joined Bristol City in the FA WSL 2.[4] On 14 February, she scored on her Bristol debut in a 7–1 win against Queens Park Rangers in the FA Cup. She finished her first season at the club with three goals in 20 appearances. On 8 February 2017, Bristol announced that Arthur had signed new deal with the club.[5] She finished her second season with two goals in 8 appearances.[6] In July 2017, she signed a new contract with the Vixens.[7]
On 25 July 2018, Arthur joined Birmingham City on a two-year deal.[8]
Arthur joined Aston Villa, who had just been promoted to the WSL, in July 2020.[9] She was released by Villa during the summer of 2022 and then signed for Championship club Crystal Palace.[10]
Arthur represented Scotland at under-17 and under-19 levels.
On 8 February 2015, she made her senior debut for Scotland, coming on as a 63rd-minute substitute for Fiona Brown in a 4–0 win against Northern Ireland.[11] Arthur was named in the Scotland squads for both Euro 2017 and the 2019 World Cup, their first appearances in the final stages of those tournaments.[12][13]
