Parrish began his career at Shrewsbury Town but played only a handful of games before joining non-league club Telford United. He moved to Doncaster Rovers in 1994 before joining Northampton Town two years later where he enjoyed some of his most notable success, scoring a superb goal at Cardiff in the play-off semifinal from outside the box then winning promotion in the final at Wembley in 1997. Sean was also instrumental in Northampton reaching the Division Two play-off final the following season.
He then joined Chesterfield in 2000 and was a key player in winning promotion. A move to Kidderminster Harriers followed in 2002, before joining AFC Telford United in 2004.
