Spireites boss Danny Wilson said experience will stand Duke in good stead with his charges.
“Matt has had a terrific career so he will have the respect of the keepers he works with,” said Wilson.
“I think he has a great future ahead of him as a goalkeeping coach and it should be a seamless transition as he replaces Mark Crossley.”
Chesterfield have been linked with Shrewsbury centre-half Nathaniel Knight-Percival who looks set to leave the Shrews.
