In a club statement, Hearts said: "In order to comply with UEFA regulations, with Steven not having the required Pro License qualification, a requirement to manage in European competition, Frankie will be named Head Coach with Steven serving as Technical Director.
 
"Gordon Forrest is named first team coach, whilst Paul Gallacher remains in position as goalkeeping coach."

Hearts confirmed the trio have signed contracts until the summer of 2025 with the option of a further year.
