Steve was a central defender who had begun his career as a trainee with Leicester City. He made just one appearance for the Foxes, against Derby County in 1992, before being released and joining Carlisle United in the summer of 1992. After two season, he joined Kettering Town, and it was from the Poppies that Steve arrived at Nene Park in late January 1996. He helped Diamonds wrap up the Beazer Homes Premier title before making a number of appearances in the Conference before injury problems meant he was unable to break back into the side. He was released in May 1997 and joined Stevenage Borough. After a single season, he moved on to Cambridge City where he spent several years before a brief spell with Histon. In August 2003, he joined Cambridge County FA Kershaw Premier side Great Shelford. He left to join Mildenhall Town in July 2007, but returned before the start of the season after being offered the post of Great Shelford assistant manager. He became player/manager at the start of the following season and was making the occasional appearance in 2011/2012 season, but then concentrated on managerial duties for the 2012/13 season. No further record of his involvement with the game has been found through to 2018.
