This centre-half was a Bournemouth player from 2012 to 2018, with a number of spells on loan to several clubs during that time. On 6 November 2014, Cargill was called into the England youth set up for the first time, being named in the England U20 squad for matches against Portugal and Canada. He started the Canada game and capped a dream debut by scoring a goal, which he described as the "best feeling". He was then called up to the Toulon Tournament in the following May. Cargill went on to make three appearances in the tournament, as England U20 finished fourth place. In November 2015, Cargill was called up by England U21 for the first time but appeared as an unused substitute against Switzerland U21.

Cargill was loaned to Scottish Premiership club Partick Thistle on the same day he was recalled from his loan spell at Fleetwood Town. On the same day, he made his Partick Thistle debut, where he started the whole game, in a 2–1 loss against Celtic. After joining the club, he quickly established himself in the starting eleven as a centre–back despite the club facing relegation. Although the club finished 11th place in the league, Partick Thistle still had to face Livingston in the Premiership play-offs to ensure their status; however, they were relegated to the Scottish Championship after losing 3–1 on aggregate. That season, Cargill make nineteen competitive appearances for the side.

After being released by Bournemouth, Cargill joined relegated side Milton Keynes Dons on 1 August 2018. Upon joining the club, he said the move to Milton Keynes Dons was a "no brainer". After initially suffering from injury, he made his Milton Keynes Dons' debut in the second round of the League Cup, in a 3–0 win over Charlton Athletic. A week later, on 25 August 2018, Cargill made his first start for the club, in a 3–0 win over Exeter City. Three days later, on 28 August 2018, he played against his former club, Bournemouth, in the second round of the League Cup and the match ended with Milton Keynes Dons losing 3–0. On 12 September 2020, Cargill scored his first goal for the club, an 88th-minute equaliser, in a 1–1 draw away to Doncaster Rovers. He signed for League Two club Forest Green Rovers on 7 January 2021 on an 18-month deal, before signing for League Two club Mansfield Town on 31 May 2023 on a 2-year deal.
