A FORMER Hibs boss who quit amid “groping” allegations is pleading for help in finding a job.
Derek White, 24, the club’s ex-football operations director, told business contacts he’d “love to reconnect”.
He resigned last October while being probed over claims of inappropriate behaviour towards under-21 Hibees squad players.
White said in a LinkedIn post: “I’m seeking a new role and would appreciate your support.
“If you hear of any opportunities, please send me a message. I’m looking for head of operations, senior operations manager, operations manager, director of operations and consultancy roles.”
A source said he was accused of touching a starlet at the Edinburgh side’s player of the year bash.
They added: “A complaint was made about Derek squeezing a youngster’s bum. There were also allegations he’d sent creepy texts to some other players.
“The club launched an investigation but Derek walked away before that came to an end.”
Hibs confirmed his resignation.
PoliceScotland said: “Enquiries were carried out but no formal complaint has been made.”
White was approached for comment.
