Starting his career as a youth with AJ Auxerre, Nivet made his first league appearances in the 1997-98 season. However, by the end of the following season, he had made only twelve further appearances and was sent on loan to Ligue 2 club LB Châteauroux for the 1999-2000 season before making the move permanent for the next season.
After establishing himself as a regular for Châteauroux, he made the step back up to Ligue 1 with Troyes in January 2002. Despite a slow start, Nivet established himself as a regular in Troyes' 2002-03 relegation season, and has been almost ever-present since.
