After retiring as a footballer, he became a goalkeeping coach and worked with the first team squads at Lincoln City, Stoke City, Brentford, Burton Albion, Charlotte FC and Huddersfield Town. Quy also served Charlotte FC as an assistant coach.

## Playing career

Quy was born in Harlow and began his career with Tottenham Hotspur on a YTS contract. After failing to win a professional contract at White Hart Lane, he transferred to Derby County in July 1994 and subsequently spent time out on loan at Stalybridge Celtic. Following another non-playing spell at Grimsby Town during the 1996–97 season, Quy had short spells with Stevenage Borough and Kettering Town, before finally finding regular football with Hereford United in 1997. However, his career was cut short by injury and after spells with Halesowen Town and Belper Town, Quy decided to take up coaching.

## Coaching career

Quy began his coaching career in the Derby County and Aston Villa academies and was appointed as part-time first team goalkeeping coach at Lincoln City in 2006. In 2007, he joined Stoke City as first team goalkeeping coach. In January 2019, Quy and Kevin Russell assisted Stoke City's caretaker manager Rory Delap. In December 2019, Quy replaced Iñaki Caña as Brentford's first team goalkeeping coach. He left the role in August 2020.
In February 2021, Quy was appointed Head of Goalkeeping at Burton Albion and he served in the role until late October, when he took up the combined role of first team and academy goalkeeping coach at Major League Soccer expansion team Charlotte FC. Following the sacking of head coach Miguel Ángel Ramírez in May 2022, Quy relinquished his goalkeeping coach duties and was made a member of the interim coaching team, serving head coach Christian Lattanzio as an assistant alongside Jamath Shoffner. Quy was appointed to the role full-time in January 2023, but he followed Christian Lattanzio out of the club when his departure was announced on 8 November 2023.
