Coley will oversee the two-Test tour of Zimbabwe starting January 28 and the multi-format tour of South Africa beginning February 21, Cricket West Indies announced on Wednesday.
"To be asked to oversee the West Indies team on the upcoming tours of Zimbabwe and South Africa is a special honour," the Jamaican said in a statement.
