Playing career
Jack was part of the youth teams at Elgin and Inverness Caledonian Thistle. He had a loan spell at Camelon in 2008-2009 but didn't make a first team appearance for either Highland side.
He then signed for Stenhousemuir but was released in 2009 after a short spell at the Warriors.[1]
The striker signed for Stranraer shortly after his release from Ochilview Park.[2][3][4][5][6][7] He made 16 appearances for The Blues and scored his only senior goal on 25 July 2009 in a 4–2 win over Berwick Rangers.[8]
Jack was signed for Bathgate Thistle on loan in 2010 by then manager Graeme Love.[9]
Following his permanent departure from Stair Park, Jack had spells at Livingston United and Stoneyburn before returning to Bathgate Thistle. It proved to be a successful second spell at Thistle as he scooped the club's top goalscorer award in 2014–2015.[10][11]
