Doolan returned to the club in January 2023 in a youth coaching capacity before being installed as caretaker manager just a month later after Ian McCall’s exit.
After going unbeaten in three matches, Doolan was made permanent boss.
After just over two years in charge, he has now been axed.
In a statement, the club said it was a decision they hadn’t taken lightly.
Chairman Richard Beastall said: “The board have made the difficult decision to part ways with Kris. This was not an easy choice.”
“When Kris left as a player in 2019, it was said that ‘He is, and always will be, a legend at Partick Thistle Football Club.’ That remains true today.”
“On behalf of everyone at the club, we thank Kris for his dedication and wish him the very best for the future. He will always be welcome at Firhill.”
