Kerry enjoyed a victory over Carlow in the Leinster SHC and retained their position in Division 1B of the National League.
“Due to increased work commitments, I am unable to give the necessary time required to manage the Kerry Senior Hurling team for the coming season,” said Carey in the statement.
“I wish to thank my management team, the full panel of players and the backroom team for their support and commitment in delivering a very successful 2016 season which resulted in Kerry maintaining their Division 1B Allianz League and Senior Championship status.
“I also wish to thank the Kerry county board for their full support and provision of all the necessary backup required to perform the job. Finally, I would like to wish the Kerry players the very best for the coming season.”
A legendary centre-back with Limerick during his playing days, the Patrickswell native also spent time in charge of the Limerick U21s.
The Kerry county board added: “Kerry county board wish to thank Ciarán and his management team of Mark Foley, James McCarthy and Mike Conway for their time, dedication and commitment during the past year.”
