Iain Brunskill has been named Bolton's new development coach as Neil Lennon's backroom staff at the Macron Stadium continues to take shape.
Wanderers parted ways with Jamie Fullarton, who had previously held the post, shortly after Lennon was hired midway through October.
Brunskill has been chosen to succeed Fullarton having built up a wealth of experience with the likes of Liverpool, Blackburn and Maltese side Floriana.
The 37-year-old most recently held a position with the Football Association and told Bolton's official website: "I'm delighted to be at Bolton Wanderers.
"It's a wonderful opportunity at a wonderful football club. The club has an excellent structure and facilities.
"I've had 18 months with The FA, which was good and really beneficial.
"The manager has come from a development background and we've already spoken about how important it is for us to be promoting from within.
"We have a big group of development players and I'm looking forward to working with them.
"I know a lot of the guys already at the academy and we have a good and very experienced set-up. It's now up to myself to work alongside Andy Hughes and push our development players on."
