Vyacheslav Hroznyi was appointed as the club's permanent manager on 17 August 2017, leaving the club at the end of the 2017 season. On 21 December 2017, Gerard Nus was appointed as the new manager of Irtysh Pavlodar on a two-year contract.

At the end of April 2019, rumors that manager Dimitar Dimitrov had left his role were downplayed by the club, but Dimitrov and his coaching staff subsequently went AWOL for Irtysh Pavlodar's match against Zhetysu on 1 May 2019. The following day, 2 May 2019, Dimitrov and his staff where summoned by club's leadership to explain their absence. Their explanation wasn't deemed valid by the club and Dimitrov was suspended. Sergey Klimov was appointed as caretaker manager. On 7 June 2019, Milan Milanović was announced as the club's new manager.

On 30 May 2020, the Professional Football League of Kazakhstan announced that Irtysh Pavlodar had withdrawn from the league due to financial problems. All of their matches were excluded from the league results.
