"I feel that the addition of Kieron will help us both at the top level and also on the training ground," boss Paul Cook told the club website., external
Chesterfield reached the National League play-off final last season, losing to Notts County on penalties, and Dyer said he was "excited" to try to help the Spireites win promotion back to the English Football League.
"I came in for the last two months of the season just to give the lads a different voice," said Dyer.
"It seemed to go really well, but I have unfinished business. I think all the staff have unfinished players, as do the players."
