The former Ipswich Town and West Ham United favourite, who led the Jammers to the Pitching In Isthmian League division north title and the FA Cup first round where they lost to League One side Port Vale, stepped down from his role at the Jammers.
Horlock took over as Maldon and Tiptree manager in February, 2025 after resigning from his role as Needham Market boss.
He had previously been in charge at Maldon and Tiptree between 2016 and 2018, before returning for a second spell.
