Terry began his career in 1999 with Dagenham & Redbridge for whom he made 130 appearances in all competitions in four years, helping the club to the Isthmian League Premier Division title in June 2000. He was called up for the semi-professional England National Game XI in January 2003.
Terry signed for Division Three side Yeovil Town in August 2003. He made 155 league and cup appearances for Yeovil in four years, helping the club to the championship of that division, renamed Football League Two, in May 2005. He signed a new one-year extension to his contract in July 2006, but suffered a cruciate knee ligament injury that required surgery in early December 2006 and ruled him out of the rest of the 2006–07 season.
In June 2007, after his contract with Yeovil expired, he joined League One side Leyton Orient on a one-year contract. Terry made 49 appearances for Orient in the 2007–08 season and signed a new one-year contract in June 2008, and scored his only league goal for Orient the following season in the 2–0 win at Walsall on 6 September 2008. He made 81 appearances in total for Orient before he was one of eight players released by manager Geraint Williams at the end of the 2008–09 season.
Terry signed for Conference National club Grays Athletic on 10 August 2009. He made three appearances for Grays before joining fellow Conference side Rushden & Diamonds on 31 August until the end of the 2009–10 season when he was released as a free agent.
On 3 August 2010, he joined Darlington after a successful trial.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“I doubt that I would have taken so many leaps in my own writing or been as clear about my feminist and political commitments if I had not been anointed as early as I was. Some major form of recognition seems to have to mark a woman’s career for her to be able to go out on a limb without having her credentials questioned.”
—Ruth Behar (b. 1956)
“My ambition in life: to become successful enough to resume my career as a neurasthenic.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“They want to play at being mothers. So let them. Expressing tenderness in their own way will not prevent girls from enjoying a successful career in the future; indeed, the ability to nurture is as valuable a skill in the workplace as the ability to lead.”
—Anne Roiphe (20th century)
