Klimkova starts in the Football Ferns head coach role in October, replacing Tom Sermanni who stepped down following the Tokyo Olympics.
Klimkova will move to New Zealand from her base in the Czech Republic for the job.
She will be looking ahead to the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup to be co-hosted by New Zealand and Australia.
The former Czech Republic defender has coached the the New Zealand side at the FIFA 2014 U-17 Women's World Cup and served as assistant coach to the women's U-20s and the Football Ferns.
