He made a name for himself after his series of goals during Beitar's Intertoto campaign in 2005.
He made his debut for the Israel national football team vs Estonia national football team on September 2, 2006 when he came in as a sub for fellow team-mate Michael Zandberg. In the next match vs Andorra national football team he played for 90 minutes scoring his first senior goal for his country and assisting for 2 more goals. On October 7, Ben Shushan scored Israel's only goal in the away match against Russia national football team securing a draw that could have turned vital for Israel.
Ben Shushan is part of a group of young players who helped transform Beitar Jerusalem's youth into a leading Israeli soccer academy. At the time he joined Beitar, city rival Hapoel Jerusalem F.C. was still the leading youth team in Jerusalem.
