Hibernian have appointed Terry Butcher as their new manager on a three-year deal following the recent departure of Pat Fenlon.
The 54-year-old moves to Easter Road, along with his assistant Maurice Malpas, after almost five years in charge at Inverness Caledonian Thistle.
He told the Hibernian website: “I'm excited about the future and what we can achieve at Hibernian - it's a great honour to be appointed the new manager of the club.
"I've been really impressed with the set-up. Fom the training facilities through to the stadium, everything is in place and now our goal is to deliver the success on the pitch that everybody wants.
"We want everybody associated with Hibernian - players, staff and supporters - to all pull in the same direction and to implement a winning mindset.
“This is a big football club with big expectations, but with energy, enthusiasm, desire and focus I believe we can rise to the challenge ahead."
Hibs chairman Rod Petrie said: “Terry is vastly experienced in Scottish football and an outstanding leader of men.
“He inherits a talented squad of players and we believe he has got the managerial skills and motivational qualities required to develop them and move the club forward.”
Butcher’s first Scottish Premiership match as Hibernian boss will be against St Mirren in Paisley on Saturday November 23, live on Sky Sports with a 12.45pm kick-off.
