Petrovič began his coaching career at Olimpija in 2002, coaching various youth selections.[2] In 2006 he joined the newly founded Bravo, where he was director of the academy and youth coach.[2][3] In 2010, he coached the under-14 selection at the Nike Premier Cup.[4] The same year, he took over the club's senior team, which competed in the Slovenian fourth division in the 2010–11 season.[5]

In June 2011, Petrovič took charge of the Slovenian Second League side Interblock.[6] After one season, he returned to Bravo where he coached the under-18 side.[7] He left Bravo in 2013 after a series of poor results.[3]

Petrovič was the manager of Krško between January 2014 and March 2017.[8] On 12 June 2017, he was appointed manager of Celje.[9] He left the team on 29 August 2017 and was replaced by Dušan Kosič.[10]

Between 2018 and 2020, Petrovič coached various youth selections of the Slovenian national team, including the under-16s and under-17s.[11]

On 3 June 2021, Petrovič was appointed as the head coach of Maribor's under-19 side.[12] He was sacked on 16 October 2022 after a poor start of the season as Maribor were sitting in tenth place in the under-19 league.[13]
