The 48-year-old takes charge of the National League side after eight years with Everton as Under-23s manager and director of the academy.

He has also taken charge of the first team on a number of occasions, overseeing the final game of the 2015-16 campaign and sitting in the dugout for a month during the 2017-18 season.
