On 3 May 2012, it was announced Baylis had joined the cast of Coronation Street as Rob Donovan, the younger brother of Carla Connor. He made his first on-screen appearance on 9 July 2012.^[3] It was announced in June 2014 that Baylis would be leaving the role of Rob in Coronation Street. The character was written out on 5 November 2014; due to his character receiving a 25-year prison sentence for the murder of Tina McIntyre. In August 2015, it was revealed that Baylis was to reprise his role as Rob later in the year, despite the fact his character was still in prison. He departed for a second time in January 2016, and made a surprise return to Coronation Street in April 2017; having escaped from prison.

Baylis appears in the music video for the song "Propane Nightmares" by Australian drum and bass group, Pendulum, released in 2008. He has also starred in short films most notably My Dad Marie.
