Playing career
Kerr played for Hutchison Vale Boys Club in Edinburgh, Scotland from the age of 15. He spent time at Everton F.C. at their youth academy, due to Hutchison Vale's strong links with the Premier League club.

After a deal with Motherwell fell through due to the departure of Jim Gannon in late 2009, Kerr moved to Southend United on non-contract terms. Due to the club's financial difficulties and transfer embargo, which would eventually lead to the club being relegated to League Two, his stay was short lived.

After terminating his contract in January due to late wage payments, Kerr signed for Fort Lauderdale Strikers in early 2011. He missed the first three months of the season with an ankle injury but returned to full fitness in June. On 21 August 2011, Fort Lauderdale Strikers loaned Kerr to Atlanta Silverbacks on a one-month loan.
For the 2012 season, Kerr signed with FK Tønsberg in the 2. divisjon of Norway. On the last day of the August transfer window, he was loaned to Kvik Halden for the rest of the season.
In early 2013, Kerr signed a contract with VPS of Finland's premier division, Veikkausliiga.
