Kilmarnock have confirmed Alex Dyer will lead them into the new season after signing a two-year contract as manager.
Dyer took over on a caretaker basis when Angelo Alessio left in December last year and was then installed until the end of the season.
Dyer is currently the only black manager working in the Scottish Professional Football League.
He originally joined the club as No2 to former boss Steve Clarke and has also been working as the Scotland manager's assistant.
Dyer told Killie's official website: "I'm extremely proud to continue as manager of this wonderful football club and I thank the board of directors for the faith they've shown me.
"My passion and desire to lead this club and team has been strengthened during these recent months away from football and I'm looking forward to start working with the team again as we prepare for the season ahead.
"I've always enjoyed a close bond with the fans and I've been blown away by how they've continued to show their support during the shutdown.
"This season, starting out without supporters in the stadium, will be unlike any other that I've ever known but that continued sense of unity can help carry us through until we're able to reunite at Rugby Park."
The club announced on Sunday that Massimo Donati had left his role on the coaching staff by mutual consent.
