A native of Tallaght, Perth was confirmed as the new manager of Dundalk in January 2019, taking over from the departed Stephen Kenny. He had served as Kenny's assistant at Dundalk since 2013.[1][2]

Despite initially falling 13 points behind Shamrock Rovers in the league, Dundalk overhauled the deficit by May.[3][4] In September 2019, Perth led Dundalk to the league title with four games to play, eventually finishing 11 points clear of their nearest rivals.[5] The League Cup followed, with a win over Derry City on penalties securing Dundalk's second League and League Cup double and Perth's first as a manager.[6] However, Perth was unable to secure the domestic treble for Dundalk as they were beaten finalists in the FAI Cup.[7]

On 20 August 2020, Perth lost his position as manager of Dundalk after they were eliminated from the UEFA Champions League.[8][9]

On 16 June 2021, Perth returned to the club as manager, appointed with the club sat in 8th place in the table.[10][11] Dundalk finished the season in 6th place, sixth points off European qualification. On 1 December 2021, Perth left Dundalk for the second time after a local consortium bought the club.[12]
