Managerial career

Koljanin worked as an assistant to Otto Barić at Casino Salzburg and was on the bench during the club's 1994 UEFA Cup final loss when Barić was suspended.[2] He later worked in the Middle East before taking up his first coaching job in Croatia with Krk in December 2013.[3]

He left his role of vice-president of Orijent to replace Edo Flego as manager of the club's senior team in May 2022.[4]
