Žerić had worked as an assistant to manager Velimir Stojnić at Rudar Prijedor and temporarily took over when Stojnić was sacked in March 2013.[4] In September 2015, he earned his UEFA coaching license.[5]
Žerić was expected to take over managerial duties from Igor Janković at Kozara Gradiška in 2019,[6] after having managed Jedinstvo Bihać, Rudar Prijedor and Podgrmeč.[7] He became manager of Jedinstvo in January 2017, but left the club after saving them from relegation in June 2017.[8]
