Jhonny Ferreira made his debut as technical director in 2013 when he managed the Carabobo Football Club , although he previously worked as a technical assistant at the Caracas Football Club. In 2016, Ferreira was also in charge of the Monagas Sport Club where he won the FUTVE League title in 2017, then in 2019 his team became runner-up in the Venezuela Cup. He also worked as a technical assistant in the Vinotinto U-17 in 2009 and in July 2025.
