Walker was coach of Varbergs BoIS,[2] GIF Sundsvall between 2000 and 2004 and brought them to their highest league finish in the Allsvenskan to date. In 2005, he took over as manager of Örebro SK and helped them gain promotion to the Allsvenskan, before moving to Norway and Norwegian First Division club Sandefjord Fotball. He guided Sandefjord to their best league finish in the history of the club in 2010.
