Derby has given assistant coach Stan Ternent permission to leave the club so he can join Huddersfield Town as manager.
The 61-year-old Ternent was appointed assistant to manager Paul Jewell five months ago, but Huddersfield gave him the chance to return to full-time management.
Ternent is best known for a six-year spell at Burnley that ended in 2004, but has also had spells at Blackpool, Hull, and Burnley.
"I would like to thank Stan Ternent for the hard work he has put in for Derby County and the support he has given Paul Jewell," Derby chairman Adam Pearson said. "We have not sought any compensation from Huddersfield."
Pearson said that Derby already had a replacement lined up for Ternent.
"The new assistant has a proven pedigree and a top-class record and is someone well known to Paul," Pearson said.
The most likely candidate is Chris Hutchings, who worked under Jewell at Bradford and Wigan. He succeeded Jewell at both clubs, but was fired each time.
