Current Hibernian Manager
| Manager | Appointment Date | To | Days in Charge | Win Rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| David Gray | 07/06/2024 | 22/04/2025 | 319 |
Hibs boss Nick Montgomery (W12 D12 L13), who lasted just 37 games at Easter Road, was sacked on the 20th of May 2024. Three weeks later, David Gray, who has had multiple caretaker positions at Hibernian, was appointed Head Coach on a three-year deal. Gray, who played for Hibs between 2014 and 2021, has a big task after the club finished a disappointing 8th place in the 2023/24 season. The squad needs revamping, with loanees returning to their parent clubs, and some players needing to perform much better to compete at the highest level of Scottish football. Gray has become the eighteenth manager since 2000, which by any measure is a lot. Hopefully, he can bring some stability to Easter Road; however, if another change comes, the best betting sites will have all the next Hibernian manager odds.

Who Will Be The Next Hibernian Manager
A lot of the usual managerial suspects were in the betting ahead of Lee Johnson being appointed in 2022 and Nick Montgomery in 2023. It would not be a surprise if they featured in the next Hibs manager market next time around.
Ronny Delia
The former Celtic manager has been away from Scottish football since leaving the Hoops in 2016. He has plied his trade in Norway, New York, and Belgium with varying degrees of success.
Alex Neil

Alex Neil started his managerial career at Hamilton Academicals in 2013. Since then, he has left his mark on four clubs: Norwich City, Preston North End, Sunderland, and most recently, Stoke City. His name featured prominently in the Aberdeen manager betting, hinting at a potential return to Scotland for this well-travelled manager.
Neil Lennon

The Ex Celtic and Hibernian manager is a go-to name for most English and Scottish managerial vacancies. Since leaving Omonia of the Cypriot First Division in October 2022, Lennon has been linked to a host of clubs, including Motherwell, Norwich City and Leicester City. He was the 5/2 favourite to be appointed Hibernian manager when Johnson left and did say he would be interested to return to manage the club.
Scott Brown
Image: skysports The former Hibernian, Celtic and Scotland midfielder was the archetypal enforcer and performed that role over 100 times for Hibernian. Brown lost his first managerial job at Fleetwood Town in September. He will surely be in demand as he gains more managerial experience, and many fans would welcome him back to Scotland; Brown was priced at 6/1 in the summer of 2023 to be the next manager at Hibs.
Steve Cotterill
Image: skysports
Surprisingly to many Scottish football fans, Steve Cotterill was towards the head of the next Hibs manager betting odds (6/1) after Lee Johnson was dismissed in August 2023. Cotterill has managed ten clubs in a near 30-year career, ranging from Sligo Rovers in the League of Ireland to his most successful periods at Cheltenham Town and Notts County. If he were to move north of the border, this would be his first managerial job in the SPL.
Roy Keane

The angriest football pundit on our screens has managed two clubs (Sunderland & Ipswich) and been assistant manager at two other clubs (Aston Villa & Nottingham Forest). In between he had five years as the Republic of Ireland assistant manager under Martin O’Neil. He has the capabilities and enough experience to be an asset to any team north or south of the border.
Malky Mackay

Appointed Sporting Director at Hibernian and charged with finding Nick Montgomery's replacement.
Derek McInnes

The current Kilmarnock boss has penned a new contract at Rugby Park until 2027. Therefore, despite being touted as a candidate to replace Montgomery, it seems unlikely.
