Heath stood down as manager of Southern Division One Central side AFC Dunstable at the end of last season, having enjoyed tremendous success at Creasey Park.
Heath joined the OD’s midway through the 2013/14 season.
The first team was in disarray due to the former management duo resigning and many of the players decided to leave, so Heath had a massive rebuilding job to do.
He guided the team to a mid-table position in the Spartan South Midlands Premier Division and handed many youngsters their first team debuts.
Season 2014/15 season saw him strengthen the side which saw the club finish third in the league and the following season the club went all out to clinch the Premier Division title and success was achieved.
In Heath’s and the club’s first attempt at Step 4, a very respectful seventh place was secured, and the Bedfordshire Senior Cup was won.
At the beginning of this 2017/18, a 2-0 win over Luton Town saw the club lift the Bedfordshire Premier Cup.
In the 2021/22 season Heath guided the club to third in the league and a play-off spot, as well as a record-breaking Emirates FA Cup campaign taking the club to the Third Qualifying Round.
Heath announced he was stepping down in March after over 400 games in charge.
Heath told Berkhamsted’s website: “Only a very special opportunity would have tempted me back into management, and this is that opportunity.
“Everyone at Berko knows this will be a real challenge, and we’ll need to pull together as a club to meet that challenge. I’m excited to get started”
