Following financial issues at St Neots Town, Dion signed for Southern League Division One Central side Peterborough Sports in November 2018.

In December 2016, Sembie-Ferris was again allowed to leave the club on loan, joining National League South side Concord Rangers for one month. He made his debut as a substitute on 26 December in Concord's 1–1 home draw with East Thurrock United. He scored twice against St Albans City on 28 January 2017, his second a 91st-minute winner with Concord recording a 3–2 victory. On 24 February, Sembie-Ferris' loan at Concord was extended until the end of the season. He made 20 appearances for the Beach Boys during his loan spell scoring four goals.

He scored one goal in ten first-team appearances for Colchester across the campaign. He was released from his contract by mutual consent in August 2017.

In August 2017, Sembie-Ferris made a return to his former club St Neots Town, saying that he had "unfinished business" at the club.

After making a handful of appearances for Colchester in the early stages of the 2015–16 season and none since new manager Kevin Keen arrived in December 2015, Sembie-Ferris was allowed to leave the club on loan. He joined National League South side Margate on 24 March 2016 until the end of the season. He made his debut in Margate's 4–1 defeat at Wealdstone on 26 March, playing the full 90-minutes. He went on to make five appearances for the club.

Sembie-Ferris made his first-team debut for Colchester on 2 January 2015, coming on as an 85th-minute substitute for Elliott Hewitt in their 3–1 FA Cup third round defeat to Cardiff City at the Cardiff City Stadium. Following his debut, Sembie-Ferris set his sights on making a league debut, saying that it was a "great feeling" to make his professional bow, and that his aim was to "get an appearance in the league and hopefully push on from there". The fixture that followed Colchester's FA Cup tie was a league match at his former and hometown club, Peterborough United, on 10 January. Sembie-Ferris stated that he was "desperate to play at London Road. Despite missing the 2–0 win, Sembie-Ferris made his league and home debut in the following game, again replacing Elliott Hewitt after 79 minutes of Colchester's 2–0 defeat to Walsall on 17 January. He made his first start for the club in their 2–0 home win over Yeovil Town on 17 March, playing 71 minutes before being substituted for Gavin Massey.

Utilised mainly as a late substitute by Tony Humes, Sembie-Ferris put this to good effect on 25 April in Colchester's game away to Fleetwood Town. He came off the bench in the 73rd minute to replace Alex Gilbey, and won his side a penalty in the 87th minute, which was duly converted by Chris Porter to win the game 3–2 and turn around a 2–1 deficit. Humes praised Sembie-Ferris' impact, hailing him as an "exciting prospect". After ending the season with eleven appearances in all competitions in the 2014–15 season, Sembie-Ferris signed a new three-year contract with Colchester on 15 May 2015.

After a six-week trial with League One side Colchester United's Academy, Sembie-Ferris was offered a contract until the end of the 2013–14 season with a view to earning a Professional Development contract after impressing academy manager Tony Humes.

He made four appearances in the Southern League during the early stages of the 2013–14 season.
