O'Sullivan played with the Kerry minor team in 1998. Wins over Waterford after a re-play and Limerick seen him win a Munster Minor Football Championship medal. O'Sullivan and co lost out to Laois in the All-Ireland semi-final.[1]

O'Sullivan won his first All-Ireland Senior Football Championship in 2006, after a comprehensive victory over Mayo side in the final on September 17, 2006, in Croke Park. Seán had an exceptional season, being responsible for many of the passes which made Kieran Donaghy a real threat to defences in 2006.

2007 was another successful year for O'Sullivan and Kerry. The All-Ireland champions won the Munster title and progressed through the All-Ireland series to beat Cork in the final.[2]

O'Sullivan was also a member of the Kerry squad that won its 36th All-Ireland Title in 2009. In December of that year, he announced his retirement from inter-county football.
