Coaching career
Harlequins: 2024–Present
In summer 2024, Gilmore replaced former Ireland hooker Jerry Flannery as defence coach at English Premiership side Harlequins.[6] In October 2024, after a first win against rivals Saracens since 2020, Gilmore was heavily praised for turning the clubs defence into a strength having previously been a weakness in the years precceeding his arrival.[7]
