Following a major injury in a friendly match, Gmoch began a coaching career, starting in Legia Warsaw in 1969–71.

He returned to International football in 1976 to qualify the National Team of Poland to the 1978 Mundial in Argentina (fifth place). He later moved to Norway in 1979 and Greece until 2003 where he became one of the most successful and recognised coaches.
In Norway, he became Skeid Fotball manager and then he went to Greece and worked first as a manager of PAS Giannina,[3][4] Apollon Athens, Larisa,[5].

For the 1985–86 season, he became coach of another great Greek club, AEK and the following season he became again trainer of Larisa and in 1988, his team historically won their first and only Greek Championship. After Larisa, he worked as a manager for Olympiacos and Aris Thessaloniki, in 1991 he went to Cyprus to become APOEL trainer, where his team won the championship and cup. He remained there until the middle of the season 1992–93. Later, he worked for Athinaikos (1994–95), Ethnikos Piraeus (1995–96), Ionikos (1997–98), Kalamata (1998–99), Panionios (1999), and again for Ionikos in 2002–03.
