Marvin Bartley and Queen of the South have parted company by mutual consent, the club has confirmed.
The former Hibernian and Livingston midfielder took charge of the club in January 2023 and helped the club finish 5th, just three points off a promotion play-off spot.
However the Palmerston side ended the 2023/24 campaign in seventh place with 41 points.
Bartley told the club's official website: "We obviously wanted a successful season but it wasn’t meant to be for one reason or another including injuries.
"A young group will have improved and learned a lot this year and be better for it. This will allow the club a full summer to move forward. I would like to thank the coaching staff players, the Board, the fans and everyone at the club especially the volunteers for all their efforts during my time at the club."
