Former Chelsea boss Avram Grant has been appointed Portsmouth manager after Paul Hart was relieved of the role.
The 54-year-old Israeli was already at the club in his second spell working as director of football.
He will take charge of Saturday's home game with Manchester United in that role as his work permit needs to be changed before he can become manager.
"He knows the club, players and set-up so it was logical to make him manager," said chief executive Peter Storrie.
Grant first came to Fratton Park as technical director in June 2007 but was soon snapped up by Chelsea and within months became coach at Stamford Bridge after Jose Mourinho left the Blues.
