McPherson started his career with his hometown club Greenock Morton, where he played mainly on the left hand side of midfield, occasionally being played as a full-back by then manager Allan McGraw. McPherson then played for Clyde and Airdrieonians. He followed manager Ian McCall in moving to Falkirk after the Airdrieonians club closed in 2002. He won promotion with Falkirk in 2005 and retired after one season in the Scottish Premier League.

McPherson returned to Falkirk, in 2009, as academy technical director.[1]

In 2014, McPherson became assistant manager of his old club Morton,[2] and signed a two-year extension in May 2016.[3] After leaving Morton following Jim Duffy's sacking, McPherson became first team coach at Scottish League One side Dumbarton in September 2018,[4] but left the club following Stephen Aitken's sacking. He then returned a fortnight later as assistant manager following Jim Duffy's appointment as Aitken's successor.[5]
