Tim Jenkins joined Wolves as assistant head coach in August 2023 following nine months at at AFC Bournemouth where he supported Gary O’Neil as a first-team coach.
With 25 years of experience in coaching, development and analytics, Jenkins began his career with Oxford United, before spells with Derby County, Hartpury College and Manchester City, where he was responsible for creating development plans and supplying team analysis support for City’s elite development squad.
He switched to Liverpool in November 2012, before spending a decade with the Reds, where he worked as an individual coach for the under-18s and under-23s squad. Jenkins assisted the likes of Alex Inglethope, Michael Beale and Neil Critchley in his role, which included taking two first-team fixtures in the 2019/20 season.
He also worked closely with some of Liverpool’s most successful young stars of recent years, such as Trent Alexander-Arnold, Curtis Jones and Neco Williams, among many others.
With the under-18s, Jenkins helped Liverpool reach the final of the 2021 FA Youth Cup and UEFA Youth League quarter-finals in 2022, before becoming the club’s head of individual development in June 2022, where he created and delivered individual progression projects within the academy’s professional development phase.
Due to his history in academy development, Jenkins was also given the responsibility to promote individual progression and work with Bournemouth’s players on their specific development areas when he joined up with O’Neil and the Cherries’ first-team in December 2022.
