Tucker, one of only three UEFA ‘A’ licensed goalkeeping coaches in Wales, joins after 12 years in the technical department at the Welsh Football Trust.
The 32 year old replaces the outgoing Inaki Bergara, who has joined former boss Roberto Martinez at Wigan Athletic.
“This position is something I’ve been working long and hard to achieve, I’m delighted to be joining,” Tucker told the official site.
“When I sat down with Paulo to discuss the position you could see he had a burning ambition to be successful.”
