Former Cowdenbeath manager Danny Lennon will take charge of the Scotland Under-21 squad for their friendly match in Hungary next month.
He'll begin duties on Wednesday and has agreed to work in a short-term capacity pending the recruitment of a new Performance Director.
Danny started his managerial career at the Blue Brazil and led them to two successive promotions in 2009 and 2010.
Lennon said: "I am proud to have been given this opportunity to look after the under-21 squad for their match against Hungary.
"I am also looking forward to working with some of the brightest young Scottish footballers. I greatly appreciate the recognition this offer brings from the Scottish FA and allows me an opportunity to add this exciting new challenge to my established club experience."
Stewart Regan, Scottish FA Chief Executive, said: "I am pleased Danny has agreed to take charge of the team for the upcoming under-21 match before a longer-term appointment can be made.
"Danny is a highly regarded coach and has worked at a very good level. I am confident he will look after the squad as they continue their preparations for the European qualifying matches which begin later this year.
"The Scottish FA is firmly focussed on appointing a new Performance Director and we hope to be in a position to make an announcement in the near future."
