Cliftonville Football Club are seeking applications for the successor to manager Tommy Breslin.

Breslin won eight trophies with the Belfast Reds including back-to-back league titles in 2012-13 and 2013-14 but resigned from the position he had held since 2011 on September 15.

Since then former assistant Gerard Lyttle has stepped into the breach and did his own chances of getting the job no harm with a 1-0 win over Glentoran, in the Danske Bank Premiership, followed by a 3-1 success against Ballyclare Comrades in the county Antrim Shield.

Applicants must hold a current UEFA Pro Licence or be enrolled in a UEFA Pro Licence course, have a demonstrable knowledge of Irish League football and be willing to commit to the continued long term development and growth of the club.

Expression of interest should be sent to chairman@cliftonvillefc.net, attaching a full CV and salary expectations. Closing date for applications is 5pm on Friday, October 2, 2015.
