In her debut Championship campaign, Ward guided the team to a fifth-place finish, highlighted by a crucial 2-1 home victory over title contenders Durham on 14 April 2019, where Emily Cox's goal and a late equalizer denial secured three vital points and ended Durham's promotion hopes.

Ward left Sheffield United by mutual consent on 7 July 2020, expressing gratitude for the opportunity while citing a desire for a higher-level challenge as her motivation for departure. She was appointed head coach of Birmingham City Women just over a month later, marking the end of a foundational period that elevated the Blades' profile in women's football.

Birmingham City

In August 2020, Carla Ward was appointed head coach of Birmingham City Women on a two-year contract, following her successful promotion-winning spell at Sheffield United in the FA Women's Championship. She inherited a squad depleted to just eight senior players amid ongoing off-field issues, including inadequate facilities that had prompted player protests earlier in the year. Ward focused on stabilizing the team to avoid relegation from the FA Women's Super League in the 2020–21 season, emphasizing defensive organization through a 4-1-4-1 formation that prioritized resilience and compactness without traditional wingers. Key strategies included bolstering the backline with signings such as international defender for leadership and stability, and midfielder as her first addition to provide creativity in midfield.

In May 2021, shortly after securing survival, Ward resigned to join rivals Aston Villa, citing the opportunity to lead a club with greater resources and potential for top-half contention in the WSL.

Aston Villa

Carla Ward was appointed of Aston Villa Women on 20 May 2021, just days after leaving Birmingham City, with the club aiming to stabilize after narrowly avoiding relegation the previous season. She inherited a squad needing significant overhaul and immediately focused on recruitment to build a competitive team in the (WSL). Under Ward's leadership, Aston Villa undertook major squad rebuilds across her tenure, bringing in experienced players to bolster depth and quality. Key early signings in summer 2021 included international from West Ham United and defender on a free transfer, alongside as goalkeeper from Birmingham City. Subsequent high-profile additions, such as forward from in August 2022 and midfielders and in January 2023, transformed the team's attacking options and leadership core. These moves emphasized Ward's strategy of blending international talent with youth development, resulting in a more cohesive and ambitious group. In her debut 2021–22 season, Aston Villa finished ninth in the WSL with 21 points from 22 matches, securing a mid-table position that marked improvement from their prior struggles. The 2022–23 campaign saw further progress, with the team pushing for the top half and ending fifth on 37 points, driven by a more dynamic attack that scored 41 goals—nearly double the previous season's tally. Notable achievements included reaching the Vitality semifinals in 2023, where they fell 1–0 to Chelsea, highlighting their growing competitiveness in cup competitions. The 2023–24 season concluded with a seventh-place finish on 24 points, maintaining stability amid injuries but showing tactical maturity in high-stakes fixtures.

Key decisions included squad selections that balanced emerging talents like Mel Filis with experienced players, while managing domestic league commitments for those in the Women's Super League and elsewhere. Tactically, Ward emphasized a balanced approach to gameplay, focusing on defensive solidity and attacking transitions, particularly in replacing injured goalkeeper Courtney Brosnan—who missed the October Nations League playoff due to a knee injury—with Grace Moloney, who deputized effectively despite some early decision-making issues.

Ireland advanced 5–4 on aggregate, securing a 4–2 home win in the first leg—powered by Katie McCabe's two goals—followed by a 2–1 away loss, earning promotion to League A and positioning the team favorably for 2027 World Cup qualifiers, which overlap with the Nations League format starting in 2026.
