McQuilkin was born in Tipton, West Midlands.^[1] Having previously been attached to West Bromwich Albion ^[2] and FC Tescoma Zlín,^[3] McQuilkin made his Football League debut for Hereford United in their opening home game of the 2009–10 season against Cheltenham Town. He signed a new one-year contract at the end of the 2009–10 season to keep him at the club. After becoming a regular member of the starting XI in his second season at Edgar Street he signed a new contract to keep him at the club until the end of the 2012–13 season. After finding first team chances limited, he joined Kidderminster Harriers on loan for an initial one-month period in January 2012.

He is a welcome addition to the squad."^[4] He made ten total appearances for the League One club and was released at the end of the season.^[5]

Non-league

McQuilkin played for Conference North club Hednesford Town before signing for Conference National side Torquay United in November 2014.^[6] The following January, he was praised by manager Chris Hargreaves for continuing to play despite not being paid.^[7]

In August 2015, he signed for AFC Telford United in the National League North,^[8] for whom he played in one match before playing one game for Hednesford in the same league a month later.^[9] On 10 November, he signed for Kidderminster again, now in the National League.^[10] Four days later on his first start, he scored in a 2–0 home win against Aldershot Town.^[11]
