Glenn Roeder has joined Stevenage as managerial advisor until the end of the season, the club have announced.
The ex-West Ham, Newcastle and Norwich boss Roeder will assist Darren Sarll, who has been in charge of team affairs since Teddy Sheringham's sacking in February.
Stevenage chairman Phil Wallace told the club's official website: "Darren Sarll is an excellent young coach who has the respect of the players and understands the DNA of the club but obviously has limited experience as a professional manager.
"Rather than throw away his energy, dedication and skill set to get results, we are instead introducing top-level managerial experience and tuition to the management structure and Glenn, having managed in the Premier League, is a fantastic addition to our team.
"Glenn will start today and will be at the heart of everything we do until the end of the season. We hope this exciting appointment gives the whole club a lift and sees us start to climb the table in our remaining nine games."
The 60-year-old's most recent role was as an advisor at Sheffield Wednesday.
