In 2010 Walker featured in Season 3 of Fox8 television show Football Superstar in an attempt to win a NYL contract with Brisbane Roar but he was eliminated in the third episode.[2] He later signed with Oakleigh Cannons ahead on the 2011 Victorian Premier League season.[3]
Following his season at Oakleigh, Walker was signed as a member of Melbourne Heart's inaugural NYL squad.[4] During the 2012–13 season he made his debut for the senior team in Round 9 against Sydney FC.[5] Later that season he was offered a senior contract by Heart and became the first player from Tasmania to earn a professional contract in the history of the A-League.[6] Walker made a total of 16 senior appearances for Melbourne Heart before being released at the conclusion of the 2013–14 season.[7]
Jeremy then returned to the NPL Victoria with Hume City FC and was named NPL Player of the Month in July.[8]
After the 2014 NPL Victoria season, Walker signed with Concord Rangers in the Conference South. He joined Braintree Town ahead of the 2015/16 season but returned to Concord Rangers on loan soon after.[9] Walker then returned to Australia, joining his former club Hume City once again.[10]
On 11 October 2017, following an ankle-injury to Marc Warren, Perth Glory signed Walker on an injury replacement contract.[11] He left Perth Glory at the conclusion of the season.[12]
In April 2013 Walker was called up to the Young Socceroos squad for a training camp held on the Central Coast.[13]
