Should the SFA wish to promote from within, the Scotland Women under-19 manager has been in her current role for three years and previously coached the u17s.
Hamill played 141 times for Scotland herself as well as north and south of the border and also Iceland.
She was in charge of the Scotland team when they participated in and hosted the 2019 Under-19 World Cup and so has some tournament experience, while Samantha Kerr and Amy Muir have graduated from Hamill’s team to the senior squad in recent times.
Similarly, Rangers assistant manager and head of their girls academy Kevin Murphy may also be in the frame, having been part of Kerr’s team at the World Cup.
