Janczyk was released by Hearts in 2005 and he then signed for St Johnstone. He scored his first and only goal for St Johnstone in a Scottish Challenge Cup tie against Partick Thistle. [1] He again failed to hold down a regular place, and St Johnstone loaned Janczyk out to Raith Rovers and then Stranraer (where he scored once against Morton).

[5] He then signed for Berwick Rangers in July 2012, scoring once against Queen's Park, [6] before moving to Clyde on 27 January 2014 having already featured in two matches for them as a trialist. [7]

On 5 June 2014, Janczyk signed for Penicuik Athletic after he was released by Clyde. [8] Janczyk ended the season with six goals from thirty-six appearances, and having claimed the goal of the season award, for a strike against Glenrothes.

Janczyk signed with Tranent in 2017, [9] however, moved to Bonnyrigg Rose, only a few months later, where he held a dual role as a player and assistant manager. [10] Janczyk signed with Dalkeith Thistle in 2018 [11] and Whitehill Welfare in 2019. [12]

Janczyk was announced as Whitehill Welfare manager in April 2020. [13] [14] He resigned on 8 November 2020. [15]
