Hibs have confirmed that Brian McDermott will depart the Club at the end of June following the expiration of his contract. 

McDermott joined Hibs in May 2023 and oversaw the Club’s football operation, holding a specific focus on recruitment. 

Following extended discussions with the Club, McDermott will vacate his role at the end of the month. 

Hibernian FC’s Sporting Director Malky Mackay commented: “Brian is someone I’ve known for a long time and is a really good man.  

“Brian and I had a good discussion and came to this conclusion. I’d like to thank him for the good work he’s done over the last 12 months and wish him all the best in his future endeavours.”
