Former head coach Brian McLaughlin is to leave Ulster to set up his own rugby consultancy business.
McLaughlin, who led the side to the 2012 Heineken Cup Final, had been working since then as academy schools coach.
Ulster team manager Bryn Cunningham said: "Brian has made a significant impact on all aspects of rugby in Ulster.
"As head coach, he was part of the team that helped re-establish the province as one of Europe's major players.
"In the past three seasons he has also been hugely effective in his specialist role in the academy, sharing his experience at schools, provincial and international levels with young players across the province.
"I would like to thank him for his contribution to Ulster Rugby and to wish him well in his new venture."
