I don't think we're going to get any updates for a while. This is from the press release in October.

The BayHawks were the affiliate of Atlanta who will become the College Park SkyHawks next season which I guess clears the way for the Pels version of the Erie BayHawks to remain the Erie Bayhawks like the press release suggests. I wouldn't expect much news until the summer. Once the new GM is in place we'll probably start hearing about staffing of the GLeague team.
From this article about the Hawks arrangement with Erie, it says the Hawks ran the basketball side and some local Pennsylvania people ran the business side of things. Since they're local to PA, I'd expect that relationship to end when the team moves to Birmingham in a few years. LINK

The team is expected to debut in Birmingham in the 2022-23 season following the renovations.
...In an effort to accelerate player development, the team will begin play next season in Erie, Pennsylvania, as the Erie BayHawks, while its permanent home at the Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Complex (BJCC) undergoes renovations.
