Hayes scored twice in 35 appearances in 2003/04 although 23 of these were as a substitute. He did score a brace in two cup matches during the season.

He scored the opener in the League One Play off final against Swansea in May 2006 as well as calmly scoring from the spot in the penalty shoot out which Barnsley won 4–3 gaining them promotion to the Championship..
On 23 February 2007, he joined League One side Huddersfield on loan with view to a permanent deal, as cover for striker Andy Booth, partially because he was falling down Barnsley's pecking order following the signing of two players.
On 10 March 2007, he scored his first goal and what turned out to be only goal for Huddersfield Town in their 2–0 home victory against Bradford.
On 17 July 2007, he returned to Scunthorpe for his second spell with the club. Hayes scored 8 goals in 40 appearances incuding 5 gaols in his last three matches of the season. But this couldn’t stop Scunthorpe returning to Division One for the start of the 2008/09 season.
Hayes scored 17 goals from 44 league appearances which only included one brace in a victory over Hartlepool. He received his second League One Paly-Off winners medal in a 3-2 victory over Millwall on 24 May 2009.

On 10 May 2010, he signed on a free transfer for Preston on a three-year contract. His debut was a 2-0 defeat at home to Doncaster on 7 August . On his second appearance he scored his first goal for the club from the penalty spot in a 5–0 win at Stockport in the League Cup. Hayes then scored his second in the same game after a great run and set up by fellow striker Josh King. He scored his only Lilywhite league goal in a 1-0 win over Portsmouth on 21 August.
After 13 league appearances for PNE Hayes returned to Barnsley on loan on 23 October 2010 as part of a deal to extend Iain Hume’s loan at Preston.

He scored his first goal on his second match for Charlton in a 2–1 away win at Notts County. After the arrival and immediate impact of Yann Kermorgant, opportunities became limited for Hayes.
On the 24th February 2012 Hayes joined Wycombe on a month’s loan. On debut he scored two goals in a 5-0 win over Hartlepool the following day and in his spell scored 6 goals in 6 matches.
