In June 2007, after his contract with Yeovil expired, he joined League One side Leyton Orient on a one-year contract.[8] Terry made 49 appearances for Orient in the 2007–08 season and signed a new one-year contract in June 2008,[9] and scored his only league goal for Orient the following season in the 2–0 win at Walsall on 6 September 2008.[10] He made 81 appearances in total for Orient before he was one of eight players released by manager Geraint Williams at the end of the 2008–09 season.[1][11]

Terry signed for Conference National club Grays Athletic on 10 August 2009.[12] He made three appearances for Grays before joining fellow Conference side Rushden & Diamonds on 31 August until the end of the 2009–10 season.[13] He left Rushden & Diamonds at the end of the season.[14]

On 3 August 2010, he joined Darlington after a successful trial. He then joined Thurrock for the start of the 2011–12 season.

After retiring from football, Terry worked as an agent for six years before joining Richie Wellens at Oldham Athletic as the first-team coach in November 2017.[15] After leaving in January 2018, Terry returned to Yeovil in the summer of 2018 to take up a role in manager Darren Way's coaching staff.[16] Terry Joined West Bromwich Albion as the loan manager for the club in July 2019 to oversee the development of youth and first-team players leaving the club on loan.[17] Terry was charged in November 2020 by the F.A. for breaching Rule E8 pertaining to betting, where it is alleged Terry placed 209 bets between 1 November 2017 and 25 October 2019.[18]
