Albion Rovers
On 11 July 2019, East signed for Albion Rovers.[4] East scored seven league goals during his solitary season for the Coatbridge club.[2] At the end of that season, East rejected a contract offer from the Wee Rovers, instead preferring to chase a full-time contract elsewhere.[5]
Queen of the South
On 25 September 2020, East signed a full-time contract with Queen of the South before the start of the 2020–21 season.[6] On 17 October 2020, East's league debut for the Doonhamers was in a 2–1 defeat versus Ayr United at Somerset Park.[7] East had already played in two Betfred League Cup matches versus Greenock Morton and St Mirren earlier in October 2020.[8][9]
On 10 November 2020, East scored his first goal for the Doonhamers versus Queen's Park, his first club, at Hampden Park in a 3-1 victory in the League Cup.[10]
On 9 June 2021, East signed a one-year extension to his contract to remain at the Doonhamers for the 2021-22 season,[11] where he has reverted from playing as a striker to a centre back.[12]
On 8 April 2022, East was the captain versus Partick Thistle at Palmerston in a 1-0 defeat, in the absence of club captain Josh Todd due to injury.[13]
On 16 April 2022, East once again captain versus Arbroath at Gayfield in a 5-1 defeat.[14]
On 19 April 2022, East scored the winning goal in the 40th minute, as Queens won 2-1 versus Inverness Caledonian Thistle at Palmerston.[15]
On 23 April 2022, East scored for Queens in the 80th minute, then scored an own goal in the 87th minute versus Ayr United in a 1-1 draw at Palmerston, that ultimately relegated the Doonhamers to League One.[16]
On 15 June 2022, East signed a one-year extension to his existing contract to remain with the Doonhamers.[17]
On 31 May 2023, East departed Queen of the South after three seasons with the Dumfries club.
