Nottingham Forest coach Andy Reid cannot wait to learn from manager Steve Cooper.
The Irishman first linked-up with Forest during their pre-season preparations, but is now permanently a part of the first-team coaching setup.
He moves up from working with the club's under-23s, and believes that he can learn so much from Cooper and the rest of his staff.
"I'm really, really proud. It's a club that everybody knows means a lot to me," the 40-year-old told the official website.
"I've covered a lot of different roles, as a player and coach as well. To be able to step up is really, really nice.
"I'm proud to be around the first-team and be able to contribute. Even just being able to have a small impact on a match day is really important. But the most important thing is that the manager felt I was the right person to step up and do that.
"There's probably a nice story surrounding the fact that somebody has been around the club for a bit, but they have to be skilled enough to do the job. I'd like to think that I am.
"I think I've done a decent job. My coaching journey has been a good one so far - started off in international football, moved into club football. I feel like I've earned my stripes, to a certain extent.
"I feel I've got the skill set to be able to do it. I also feel there's still loads more to come, when you see the quality of the manager, Tatey, Jamie Robinson and the rest of the staff. They work to a really, really high level.
"For me, it's, 'what does good look like?'. I'm seeing what good looks like every single day. You want to be a part of that - which I know I can do, and which I think I have done."
