Derek Watt Adams (born 25 June 1975) is a Scottish football manager and former player.
Adams became manager of Ross County in 2007, winning promotion from the Scottish Second Division in his first season, before reaching the Scottish Cup Final two years later. He joined Hibernian as assistant manager in 2010 before returning to Ross County the following year, where he won the Scottish First Division and was voted PFA Scotland Manager of the Year for the 2011–12 season. Adams then took on the managerial role at Plymouth Argyle in 2015 and led them to promotion from League 2 in 2017. Having been sacked by Plymouth in April 2019, he became manager of Morecambe in November. He would guide the club to promotion to League One in 2021, before leaving to take over at Bradford; after being sacked by Bradford, he returned to Morecambe. He left Morecambe in November 2023 to return to Ross County, but he resigned from that position in February 2024, and later started a third spell at Morecambe.
