Ahead of the 2011 season he was named manager of BK Forward.[2] He joined the coaching team of the city's larger team Örebro SK ahead of the 2013 season.[3]

Having both played for and later managed Örebro SK for several seasons, he became director of sports in 2021.[1] In 2022, the club sacked manager Joel Cedergren after a single league game, and Kjäll was brought back as manager. However, he did not last throughout the entire season either.[4] He returned to an administrative position, but in December 2022 he was hired by the Swedish Football Association as head coach of the new Swedish U15 team.[5]
