"The successful candidate will be expected to drive our women's program forward and improve our results across both formats. We are grateful for the efforts of interim head coach, Gus Logie, who has led the squad during this transition period and will continue in his interim role until the process has concluded," he added.
According to the Cricket Windies release, "the candidate will primarily be responsible for producing West Indies women's teams which perform consistently with winning performance in ODIs and T20Is through the design and delivery of well-structured and progressive coaching programs.""Effectively deploying resources and implementing tactical initiatives to ensure the achievement of superior match results and top placement in all ICC competitions. Managing the on and off-field development of current and new players through elite player development, health and welfare programmes.
