The 43-year-old moves to the Scotstoun club from his role with the Scotland national team, following confirmation of Dave Rennie’s appointment as the new Australia Head Coach, at the end of the current season.

Wilson joined the Scotland coaching group, led by Gregor Townsend, in August 2018 after a successful three-year spell as Head Coach at Cardiff Blues, (2015-2018), steering the club to European Challenge Cup glory in Bilbao and securing a return to the Heineken Champions Cup.

Prior to his role with the Blues, Wilson had coached at Scarlets and Dragons in Wales, with over eight years’ experience in the Guinness PRO14.

He combined this with two years as Wales U20 Head Coach, when his side became the first to beat the All Blacks at the age grade in 2012 in South Africa and were the first Wales U20 side to reach a Junior World Cup final in France in 2013.

He also had a season with Bristol under former Scotland Head Coach Andy Robinson.

Scottish Rugby Chief Executive, Mark Dodson, said: “We are very pleased Danny has accepted this important role at Glasgow Warriors as it retains an excellent coach within the Scottish professional game.

“Danny has worked hard to develop Scotland’s set-piece into a real area of strength and his technical expertise, aligned with his working knowledge of many of the Warriors’ players, will be key to maintain the club’s progression in the coming years.
