Mark Miller (born 22 September 1962) is an English manager and former footballer, current head coach of Balzan F.C.. During his career he played as a midfielder and played in Malta and Finland[1] towards the end of his career.

Career

After his experience in Finland, Miller returned to Malta and played and managed Floriana. During his time with the Greens they won the Premier League, FA Trophy and the Super Cup.

Miller joined Sliema Wanderers as player/coach during this time he won the Premier League (1994–95)

Miller joined the technical set up of Hibernians in 1996, remaining with the club until 1999. Miller was then associated with the Malta Football Association until 2008, serving as head coach of the Malta national under-21 football team. Following the Premier League triumph in 2008–09, Miller crossed the divide and joined Valletta where he spent two years as manager.[2]

In 2015, Miller took over Qormi, who were bottom of the League, after Josef Mansueto's resignation.[3] In the following season, Miller rejoined Hibernians leading them to another Premier League title, the 12th in their history. In the 2017–18 season, following a run of results which saw them drop to seventh in the League table, Miller and Hibernians mutually parted ways.[4]

He was appointed the head coach of Mosta in November 2018[5] and left Mosta by mutual agreement in June 2020, after reaching a 9th and an 8th place in the league.[6]

On 22 June 2020 Miller was appointed as new head coach of the Maltese Premier League side Balzan F.C., signing a two-years contract.[7]
