On this week’s episode of A Level Playing Field, we’re joined by Joelle Murray as she opens up on stepping into the Hibernian Women manager’s role following Grant Scott’s exit and what it means to lead the club she’s always called home.

From her emotional connection to Hibs, to being recognised with the prestigious One Club Award, Murray reflects on a journey that began at her dad’s side, learning the game from a player who shaped her love of football. That foundation still drives her today, both in how she sees the game and how she wants her team to play.

She speaks candidly about never wanting to leave Hibernian as a player, and how that loyalty now fuels her ambition as a manager. We dive into her coaching identity, what type of manager she believes she is, and the values that matter most in building a successful environment.

There’s also a look ahead to her plans for the future, her vision for the squad, and how she’s navigating the transition from dressing room leader to the dugout.

A story of loyalty, identity and stepping into a new chapter with one club still at the heart of it all.
