Following his retirement, Di Matteo pursued his UEFA coaching qualifications while also managing business interests, including restaurant ventures. In 2008, he began his managerial career with Milton Keynes Dons, leading them to a commendable season in League One.
In 2009, he accepted the role of head coach at West Bromwich Albion. Under his guidance, the club achieved promotion to the Premier League in his first season. Although he was dismissed midway through the following campaign, his early managerial success earned him recognition within English football.
On 29 June 2011, Di Matteo returned to Chelsea as assistant manager to André Villas-Boas. When Villas-Boas departed in March 2012, Di Matteo was appointed interim manager. Under his leadership, Chelsea won the FA Cup and, most notably, the UEFA Champions League—the first in the club's history—by defeating Bayern Munich in May 2012.
Following these achievements, Di Matteo was officially appointed Chelsea's manager on 11 June 2012. However, after a brief period of unsatisfactory results, he was relieved of his duties in November 2012.
Reports from the time indicated that Chelsea continued paying Di Matteo a weekly salary of approximately £130,000 as part of his contract terms. As of recent estimates, his net worth stands at around £6.76 million. In his personal life, Roberto Di Matteo is married to Zoe Di Matteo. The couple has three children and resides in Leamington Spa, Warwickshire.
