Career
Southend United
After beginning his career with Tottenham Hotspur,[2] Maher moved to Southend United on a free transfer on 23 January 1998. He quickly broke into the first team, making 18 appearances for the first-team that season. During the 1998–99 season, Maher scored his first career goal in a 1–1 draw with Rochdale.[3]
Over the next ten years Maher was a virtual ever-present for Southend, rising to be team captain and subsequently club captain. During this time he made more than 400 appearances for the club, and captained Southend to promotion twice, from League Two to the Championship, in successive seasons.
When, during the 2007–08 season it became clear that Maher was no longer an automatic first choice he chose to look for opportunities elsewhere. He left Southend just before he would have become entitled to a testimonial, to join fellow League One side, Gillingham, on loan for the remainder of the season. In his two months with the Kent club, he made seven total appearances but did not score a goal.
Oldham Athletic
In the summer of 2008, Maher joined Oldham Athletic after he was released by Southend,[2] despite the confidence from Gillingham that he would sign with their club.[4] He immediately signed a one-year contract with the club.[2] On 9 August, he made his debut for Oldham in a 4–3 comeback victory versus Millwall.[5] He later scored his first goal for Oldham on 14 March 2009 versus Milton Keynes Dons. In the 4th minute, he scored from a free kick to give Oldham a 1–0 lead, though the team lost the game 6–2.[6] On 13 May, under new manager Dave Penney, Maher's contract was not renewed, resulting in his release from the club.[7]
Gillingham
In June 2009, he joined Gillingham on a two-year deal.[8]
Dagenham & Redbridge
In August 2011 Maher signed for Dagenham & Redbridge.[9] On 7 May 2013, he was released by the Daggers due to the expiry of his contract.[10]
Chelmsford City
In June 2014 Maher was appointed head coach of Chelmsford City.[11] On 14 February 2015, Maher was an unused substitute in the Clarets' 2-0 defeat to Maidenhead United.[12]
Return to Southend United
In October 2015 Maher returned to Southend in a coaching capacity, assisting the under 21 and youth teams at the club.[citation needed]
International career
Although born in England, Maher is eligible to play for the Republic of Ireland national football team, and made four appearances for the Republic of Ireland under-21 team.
