After a playing career spent mostly at the lower levels, he embarked on a managerial career of over two decades. He led six clubs in the second tier, and seven in the Primeira Liga.
Born in Vila do Conde, Ramos' professional input during his nine-year senior career consisted of nine Segunda Liga games, with Rio Ave FC (six) and S.C. Beira-Mar (three). He retired in June 1998, aged only 27.[1][2]
Ramos started working as a coach with his last club Vilanovense FC, in 2001. In the following years he alternated between the second and third divisions, his first job at the professional level being with G.D. Chaves in the 2004–05 campaign.[1][2] In June 2011, he won the third-tier title with C.F. União, and left days later for Associação Naval 1º de Maio.[3]
In early 2014, Ramos was appointed at division three side F.C. Famalicão, achieving promotion in his first full season and leaving on 17 May 2016.[4] Shortly after, he signed a one-year contract with C.D. Santa Clara also in the second tier.[5]
On 22 September 2016, after six wins and one draw in the first seven games, Ramos left the Azores and joined C.S. Marítimo of the Primeira Liga, then ranking second from bottom in the table.[6] He eventually led his team to the sixth place, with the subsequent qualification to the UEFA Europa League.[7]
With a year left on his Marítimo contract, Ramos moved back to Chaves in June 2018 for a fee of around €100,000 after their loss of Luís Castro to Vitória de Guimarães.[8] He resigned by mutual consent on 10 December, with the team in last place.[9]
At the start of 2019, Ramos was hired by Rio Ave for the rest of the season after José Gomes moved to Reading.[10] After he guided them to seventh place, both parties agreed not to renew.[11]
On 18 December 2019, Ramos was appointed at Boavista F.C. for the second half of the campaign; the Porto-based club had sacked Lito Vidigal when eighth in the league.[12] At the end of the season he returned to Santa Clara, replacing João Henriques on a one-year deal.[13] The side finished a best-ever sixth and qualified for the inaugural edition of the UEFA Europa Conference League;[14] he was awarded with a 12-month extension.[15]
In October 2021, Ramos rescinded his contract and moved abroad for the first time, signing a two-year deal at Al Faisaly FC in the Saudi Professional League.[16] The following 24 February, after only one win in ten matches, he left by mutual consent.[17]
Ramos returned to his country's top flight on 30 May 2023, succeeding Armando Evangelista on a two-year deal at F.C. Arouca.[18] On 15 November, with the team bottom after just one victory in 11 games, he was dismissed.[19]
