VettoriΒ inspired the Phoenix to the final of the inaugural competition last season before losing out to Southern Brave at Lord's.
McDonald will not attend this year's competition again after being selected as the new Australia men's team head coach. He replaces Justin Langer - who turned down a short-term deal to remain as boss.
He told Warwickshire's website: "I absolutely loved my time working with the Birmingham Phoenix squad as head coach last summer, so taking on the role on a permanent basis was a very easy decision.
