The Wallabies extend their sincere thanks to Geoff Parling for his contribution to Australian Rugby following his decision to accept the position of Leicester Tigers Head Coach ahead of the 2025/26 Premiership season.
Parling will continue his work as a Wallabies Assistant Coach through to the end of the British & Irish Lions Series before returning to the UK club with whom he won two Premiership titles as a player between 2009 and 2015.
Wallabies Assistant Coach, Geoff Parling said: "There's still plenty of work to do with the Wallabies and I am very much focused on the immediate challenges ahead with the British & Irish Lions Series just around the corner.
"I have felt incredibly privileged to work with a number of great people in my time here and would especially like to thank Joe for the environment he has created at the Wallabies.
"My family and I originally came to Australia for seven months and will now be leaving after seven years proud to call ourselves Australian Citizens, and lucky to have lived in such a great community. I'm looking forward to continuing to work hard with our great staff and leaving Australia on a positive note."
Rugby Australia's Director of High Performance, Peter Horne said: "Since arriving in Australia, Geoff has given his heart and soul to Australian Rugby and for that we are very grateful.
"We are obviously sad to see him go but we understand the opportunity presented to him by Leicester Tigers is a good one for his family and career.
"The Wallabies look forward to working with Geoff through the Lions series and he will always be a friend of Australian Rugby."
Rugby Australia will now begin the process of recruiting for a new assistant coach.
