Career

Born in Chatham, Kent,[3] Essam joined Gillingham in 2002 and progressed through the ranks of the youth team and also captained the side.[4] In March 2010, Essam was awarded his first professional contract along with Dean Rance and Charlie Stimson.[5] He was sent out to Conference South side Bishop's Stortford in October 2010 on an initial one-month loan which was later extended.[6] Later on in the season he joined Dover Athletic on loan in the same division.[7] In August 2011, Essam rejoined Bishop's Stortford of the Conference North on a one-month loan deal along with Dean Rance.[8] He scored his first goal for the club on 29 August in a 5–0 win over Hinckley United.[9] Essam joined Conference South outfit Dartford on loan in December 2011.[10] He scored in the 4–1 away league win over Staines Town.[11] Essam made his professional and Gillingham debut on 13 February 2012 in a 2–1 home defeat to Southend United.[12] On 31 August 2012 Essam signed for Luton Town on a month-long loan, later extended for a second month.[13][14] He returned to Gillingham on 2 November after making nine appearances for Luton, and was swiftly made available on a free transfer by Gillingham manager, Martin Allen.

On 23 January 2013, Essam signed for Crawley Town of Football League One on a free transfer, with Gillingham retaining an interest by inserting a sell-on clause into the contract.[15] In November 2013, Essam joined Conference Premier side Dartford on a one-month loan deal.[16]

On 27 July 2015, Essam signed for Football League Two side Leyton Orient. After a successful trial with the club he was offered a one year contract. In May 2016, he was released from Leyton Orient when it was announced that he would not be retained when his contract expired.[17]
