In 1988, he joined Legia Warsaw, where he made 348 appearances in all competitions and scored six goals.[2] He won the Ekstraklasa title three times (1994, 1995, 2002), the Polish Cup four times (1989, 1990, 1994, 1995), the Polish Super Cup twice (1990, 1995) and the Polish League Cup once (2002).[3] In the 1995–96 season, he participated in the UEFA Champions League.[4] He scored the last goal for Legia in spring 2005 at the age of 37 and 60 days, which gives him the second place in the club's classification of the oldest scorers, behind Lucjan Brychczy.
He also played for the French EA Guingamp, where he won the Intertoto Cup in 1996,[5] and the Chinese side Shenyang Jinde.[3]

In early April 2019, Jóźwiak became a board advisor at Wigry Suwałki,[11] before joining Wisła Płock as their new sporting director on 20 May that year.[12] On 30 November 2020, he was sacked by Wisła's management board.[13]
