The 41-year-old replaces Steve Cotterill in the hotseat and is the first managerial appointment by the club’s new director of football, Micky Moore.
Taylor has been out of work since being sacked by the Saddlers in February 2022, just eight months into what was his first senior role in management.
Taylor said:"I’m delighted. I think when you come to the stadium, when you look at the infrastructure behind the football club – there is nothing other than a burning desire and excitement. He continued: “I think what’s important now is that everyone understands just how hungry I am for this opportunity.Director of football Moore explained how Taylor perfectly fitted the criteria outlined when he began searching for Cotterill’s successor earlier this month."I met quite a few candidates for a coffee, had a lot of telephone conversations with people, and obviously then brought the number down to be interviewed.
