Kittrick may not be a name that Southern League followers are too familiar with. However, he is certainly well-known to fans in the Vanarama National League and Northern Premier League.
Indeed, he is one of the most successful managers in the non-League system with over 25 years of managerial experience.
In his first spell at Guiseley AFC he gained promotion to the Conference North in 2009/10 and also reached the quarter-finals of the FA Trophy.
Guiseley also finished as runners-up in the Conference North in successive seasons - 2011/12 and 2012/13 - and also reached the First Round of the FA Cup.
After leaving Guiseley, Kittrick enjoyed a productive three-season spell at Scarborough Athletic where he eventually won promotion to the Northern Premier League Premier Division - a major feat particularly after the Seasiders were in the bottom three in the table when he joined them.
He returned to Guiseley in April 2022 for the second time and almost saved the club from relegation after a difficult campaign in the National League North for the Yorkshire outfit.
In September 2022, he was appointed as manager of NPL Premier Division side Belper Town but departed in January after a disappointing run of form.
He was awarded seven National League North manager of the month awards, between 2008 and 2013.
