In January 2008 North was named League Two Player of the Month after scoring 4 goals in 5 games. and he was the club's top scorer at the end of the 2007–08 season. His recent performances had earned him interest from higher division clubs including Leeds United. For the 2008–09 season, North struggled from fitness and injury problems from the start, and following the dismissal of Alan Buckley, he found himself out of favour with new manager Mike Newell. Newell had brought in several new signings such as Adam Proudlock and Jean-Louis Akpa Akpro, which eventually left North with only run outs in the reserves, even finding it hard to claim a place on the substitute bench. Following an impressive pre-season by the player, which was also coupled with injuries and suspensions to fellow strikers, North briefly won his place back in the team at the start of the 2009–10 season. On 13 January 2010, new manager Neil Woods made North available for loan. North was released by Grimsby on 1 February 2010.

North started his professional career with home town club Grimsby Town in 2004 where he went on to break into the first team several years later. He departed Grimsby in 2010 and went on to play for Alfreton Town in 2010 before moving to Ireland with St Patrick's Athletic. In 2012, he transferred to Sligo Rovers where he remained for several seasons for before a spell with Shamrock Rovers.
