In January 2020, Williamson, a product of the Rangers youth system, signed a new contract with the club extending his stay until the summer of 2021.[1]

On 13 January 2021, Williamson joined Arbroath in the Scottish Championship,[2] after agreeing a one year contract extension until 2022. Williamson made his professional debut three days later in a draw with Queen of the South.[3]

On 15 July 2022, Williamson would sign an extension with Rangers which would keep him at the club until 2024, and then joined Scottish Championship side Dundee on a season-long loan.[6] He would make his debut for the Dark Blues in an away win over Stranraer in the Scottish League Cup.[7]
