Leinster coach Michael Cheika will replace Jacques Delmas at Stade Francais at the end of the season.
After five years at the Leinster helm, Cheika will become director of rugby at the Parisian outfit and has signed a three-year deal with the Top 14 club.
"The club have decided on a reorganisation of their sporting sector and have entrusted from next season and for the following three years, the sporting management to Michael Cheika," a statement on the Stade Francais website read.
"He will be the director of rugby at Stade Francais Paris."
Cheika led the Irish province to their first Heineken Cup success in 2009 as well as the Celtic League the previous season.
Leinster Chief Executive Michael Dawson paid tribute to the Australian and said: "Having worked closely with Michael over the last five years, I know that he will be keen to focus on the upcoming challenges ahead in cementing our place at the top of the Magners League, while we also face into a home Heineken Cup quarter final against Clermont Auvergne over the coming weeks.
"Michael has always been up front with his future plans which enabled us to make a smooth transition for next season and we thank him for that. We have no doubt that Stade Francais will benefit from his man management and motivational skills, not to mention his coaching prowess."
