David Moyes has left West Ham after helping the club avoid relegation.
The Scot’s contract came to an end after last weekend’s game against Everton and Irons’ co-chairman David Sullivan has confirmed it won’t be renewed.
He added that the club is aiming to appoint a new manager in the next 10 days.
Moyes took over as boss in November after Slaven Bilic was sacked.
The Croat was sacked following a 4-1 defeat to Liverpool, which left the club in the relegation zone.
Moyes kept the Hammers safe and was credited with getting the best out of forward Marko Arnautovic.
But some fans were critical of him, with several invading the pitch during a 3-0 defeat at Burnley in March.
But the Hammers ended the season strongly after a trip to Miami.
They picked up 12 points from their final eight games to secure their place in the Premier League next year.
West Ham also confirmed assistants Alan Irvine, Stuart Pearce and Billy McKinlay have departed.
David Sullivan said: “I would like to place on record my sincere thanks to David Moyes and his staff for achieving the target of keeping West Ham United in the Premier League.
“Throughout his time here, David has carried himself with dignity and honesty and we have all found him to be a pleasure to work with. He, Alan, Stuart and Billy accepted the challenge and attacked it head on, turning around a difficult situation. They deserve great respect for the job they have done and they leave the Club with our best wishes.
“When David and his team arrived, it was the wish of both parties that the focus be only on the six months until the end of the season, at which point a decision would be made with regards to the future. Having taken stock of the situation and reflected now the campaign is complete, we feel that it is right to move in a different direction.
“We are already taking steps to identify and recruit the manager we believe can take West Ham United forward in line with our ambitions. We aim to appoint a high-calibre figure who we feel will lead the club into an exciting future for our loyal supporters within the next 10 days.”
