Shortly after retiring, Espejo began his managerial career in 2010 while in charge of
Deportivo Coopsol. He narrowly missed out promotion in the following year, and subsequently left the club. In May 2012, Espejo was named manager of
Cobresol after the departure of
Teddy Cardama, but only as an interim manner, as the club later appointed
Javier Chirinos as manager; Espejo was named in charge of the youth setup. On 18 September of that year, he was appointed manager of former club Sport Boys. Despite suffering relegation, Espejo continued in charge of the club for the 2013 campaign, but resigned on 8 July 2013. On 19 August 2013, he was named
Daniel Ahmed's assistant at
Sporting Cristal for the 2014 campaign, before taking over
Cienciano on 23 December 2014. On 1 October 2015, Espejo left Cienciano due to the club's financial problems, and was named in charge of
Real Garcilaso on 17 December. Sacked the following 1 May, he worked for
Cantolao's youth setup before being appointed manager of
Comerciantes Unidos. Espejo subsequently returned to Cantolao's youth sides for the 2018 campaign, and was appointed manager of another former side, Unión Huaral, on 28 January 2019. On 28 October 2020, he rejoined Cantolao for a third spell, but now as a first team manager. Espejo left Cantolao on a mutual consent on 28 September 2021, and spent more than two years without a club before taking over
Alianza Atlético on 1 March 2024. He was sacked from the latter on 28 May, due to poor results. ==References==
