On 3 April 2017, it was confirmed that Jaissle would be the assistant of manager Alexander Zorniger of Danish Superliga side Brøndby starting from the summer 2017. [3] He left Brøndby IF on 1 June 2019. [4] A few weeks later, he was hired as manager for FC Red Bull Salzburg's U18 academy team. [5]

In January 2021, he was appointed the new head coach of Liefering after Bo Svensson left the club. [6] In his first job as a first-team coach, Jaissle managed to lead Liefering to 2nd place in the second tier of Austrian Football, equalling the club’s all-time highest finish (Liefering also finished in 2nd in the 2014/15 season). [7]

Red Bull Salzburg

In April 2021, it was reported that Jaissle would become the manager of RB Salzburg, succeeding Jesse Marsch, starting from July that year. [8] In the 2021–22 season, he managed to win the domestic double, he also led the club to the Champions League knockout phase for the first time in their history. [9] He then had his contract extended until June 2025. [10] In his second season, he won another league title with Salzburg, and reached the Europa League knockout round play-offs, after finishing third in the Champions League group stage.

On 28 July 2023, one day before the start of the 2023–24 season, he was relieved of his duties, leaving the club without a manager. [11]

Al-Ahli

Upon his release by Salzburg, Jaissle joined Saudi club Al-Ahli on a three-year contract.
