| The former Gillingham and Colchester United player joined Wellington’s coaching team during last season from working at League One side Exeter City and has been assisting joint managers Tim Legg and Alex Pope.
However, after the pair stepped down at the end of the season, Cherry will now take sole charge of the side.
Chairman Mike Hall told https://www.wellingtonafc.co.uk: “We’re all delighted that Richard has accepted the role.
“When Tim and then Alex decided not to carry on, it was important their successor could maintain continuity while building on their excellent work over the past three-and-a-half seasons.
“We think Richard fits that bill perfectly – he knows the squad inside out, is popular with the players and has an impressive CV, both as a player and a coach.
“We believe he will be a perfect fit for our ethos of providing top-level coaching to develop players who play attractive football.”
Cherry, who lives in Torquay and runs a successful hairdressing and hair academy business, said: “I am looking forward to continuing the journey, working with a great bunch of players and excellent support from behind the scenes at the club.
“It is important that the strides forward the club have already made continue, alongside developing our younger players from our youth teams upwards.
“Our brand of football saw us commended by opponents, but we didn’t get the points often deserved. We want the points now too!”
