Career Robertson began her career in the video game industry, despite being unfamiliar with gaming. Her first credits include Smite and Rogue Company. She then moved to Los Angeles in 2019.

In 2019, Robertson auditioned for the role of Lady Dimitrescu in Resident Evil Village based solely on the description of the character; she had no prior knowledge of the Resident Evil franchise. She likened the process to a theater audition and felt comfortable with her work, but she was surprised at her hiring. She also took inspiration from the works of Shakespeare.

Resident Evil Village was released in May 2021 to commercial success and favorable reviews. Following its release, Robertson was revealed as the voice and motion capture actor for Dimitrescu.

Multiple publications, including Eurogamer, The Guardian, GamesRadar, and Polygon, observed Dimitrescu as a breakout character in the video game industry despite not being a main character. For her performance, Robertson won accolades at the Golden Joystick Awards 2021, The Game Awards 2021, the Voice Arts Awards 2021, the 2022 New York Game Awards, the 2022 NAVGTR Awards, and the 25th Annual D.I.C.E. Awards. She was also nominated for the British Academy Games Award for Performer in a Supporting Role at the 2022 British Academy Games Awards, her first major award nomination.

From 2021 to 2022, Robertson reprised her role as Dimitrescu in DLCs and took on roles in Back 4 Blood and God of War Ragnarök. In 2023, she landed her second major role in the role-playing video game Baldur's Gate 3 as Orin the Red, one of the game's three villains. She was excited to play the role because of her past experience with Wizards of the Coast, and called it "liberating".
