Fenlon has signed a contract that will keep him in charge of Hibs until the summer of 2014.
“I’m really excited by the prospect of managing Hibernian; a club with a rich history and proud traditions,” Fenlon told Hibs’ official website.
“When I came to Easter Road in March for a friendly match, while I was in charge of Bohemians, I saw close-up the tremendous potential of the club.
“But in order to move Hibernian forward there will need to be a lot of hard work and a clear change in mindset shown collectively by the team.
“There are a lot of quality players on Hibernian’s playing staff and it is now my job to make sure they function as a team.
“The primary goal is to provide winning football to the Hibernian supporters, who have gone through some hard times recently.
“But we will also try to entertain our fans in the process and put a smile on their faces.
“I’m looking forward to put into practice all that I’ve learned during my nine years as a manager over in Ireland and will be giving everything I’ve got into assembling a successful Hibernian team that everybody connected to the club can be proud of.”
