Managerial career edit
After retiring in 2012, Golem began his coaching career at his former club, Hrvatski Dragovoljac. He signed a contract until June 2014.[4] He worked in the staff until just before the summer 2017.[5] He then joined the staff of manager Željko Kopić in Slaven Belupo, functioning as an assistant coach.[6]
On 13 November 2018, Željko Kopić was appointed as the new manager of Hajduk Split, where Golem followed with him, remaining as his assistant.[7] In the end of November 2017, Golem finished his UEFA Pro Licence course.[8] Golem left Hajduk in the summer 2018.
On 3 January 2019, Golem became the manager of Balmazújvárosi FC in the Nemzeti Bajnokság II and in July that year he took over at Lučko.[9]
During his second stint as an assistant manager of Hajduk, he worked under Boro Primorac who was the assistant coach of Arsene Wenger for over 20 years in Arsenal, and later aided Paolo Tramezzani.
In February 2022, he was appointed manager of Croatian second tier-side NK Solin.[10]
