Simon Colbran has been named as the new manager of Peacehaven.
The former Crowborough, Worthing and Horsham boss replaces Darren Freeman who this week switched to Lewes.
Colbran has been out of football since leaving Chipstead earlier this season.
He met with Peacehaven committee members last night and was appointed by chairman Brian Suckling this morning.
The 45-year-old is hoping to bring in an assistant to work alongside him but also wants to retain coach Tony Coade as part of the management team.
Peacehaven are currently 14th in Ryman south after a five-match unbeaten run.
