St Mirren Football Club is delighted to announce the appointment of Darren Jackson as first team coach.
The 51 year-old ex-Newcastle, Hibs, Celtic and Hearts forward becomes part of new manager Alan Stubbs' coaching staff.
Speaking to stmirren.com on his appointment, Jackson said: "There's nothing like getting on the training pitch.
"I've met the chairman and Tony and I've been coming around St Mirren for a while. I'm really really looking forward to getting started."
St Mirren manager Alan Stubbs was delighted to get Darren on board saying: "It's something I've wanted to do for a while but for one reason or another it just hasn't been able to happen.
"Everything has fallen into place this time and the timing is right so I'm delighted from a personal point of view to get it done.
"He'll be really good with the players in terms of a connection on the training ground but also off the training ground."
