Former Australia coach Tim Nielsen has exhausted no time finding new employment, with the 42-year-old selected to a development role with the South Australian Cricket Association.
Nielsen only announce on Tuesday that he would step down as national coach after the Argus review optional that his position be made vacant, meaning he would have to re-apply for the job.
He has return to the state where he made his name as a player, featuring in 101 matches for the Redbacks before assuming a supporter coaching role in 1999.
The Emerging Redbacks Program, which is an academy style set-up for rising talent, is a notion of SACA's Director of Cricket Jamie Cox, who feels Nielsen is the right person to bring the next generation of Redbacks up to the elite level.
"I have had a close organization with Tim during his time in charge of the Australian team and I have always greatly well-liked his energy and passion for coaching," Cox said.
"We are clearly pleased that the timing of our search for a Head Coach for the Emerging Redbacks Program has enabled such a high quality candidate to be attracted to the role."
Redbacks coach Darren Berry said Nielsen was an outstanding appointment and he looked forward to working with another former gloveman.
"Tim has clearly travelled the world and coached at the highest level, so to have him concerned is going to be another string to our coaching bow," Berry said.
"With Jeff Vaughan, Joe Dawes, myself and now Tim Nielsen we consider we have got the best coaching panel in first-class cricket in the country. I can't emphasise enough, how delighted I am that Tim has determined that this is the role that he'd like to take up."
