We have parted company with manager Steven Hammell.
His assistant Brian Kerr will also leave the club.
Stuart Kettlewell has agreed to take interim charge of the first-team until a permanent appointment has been made.
“Steven Hammell is and will forever be a colossus in Motherwell Football Club history,” chairman Jim McMahon said.
“Unfortunately, due to a number of factors, his time in charge hasn’t worked out the way we all really hoped it would.
“Although this decision has been difficult, we feel it is necessary as we look towards the last third of the Premiership season.
“I want to thank Steven and Brian for all their efforts and wish them both all the very best in the future.”
The chairman and non-executive directors have begun the recruitment process to appoint the next manager.
