Williams' professional career began with West Ham United in April 2000 when he joined the club from Walton & Hersham for a fee of £40,000.

He stayed with the Posh for one season, before moving to Birmingham City for a fee of £350,000.
His career stalled at St Andrews, playing just 4 games for City and, after two loan periods at Queens Park Rangers, he re-joined Peterborough United, initially on-loan, later joing permanently. In May 2004, however, Williams went to Barnsley on a free transfer.
He played a full season for the South Yorkshire side, before moving on another free transfer to Gillingham, in July 2005 until January 2006, when he signed for Swansea City. He returned to the side in December 2006, after a Hernia operation in November. He was released by the club on 7th May 2007.
On 27th July 2007, he joined Wycombe Wanderers on a two-year deal.[1]
