Our Team
Now

Joe Cooke
Senior Project Manager
Joe has been part of the extended Timberplay family for several years, beginning his journey at our sister company, Lightmain. His strong project management skills quickly stood out, making him the ideal choice to lead larger, more complex projects and 2024, he officially joined the Timberplay team, bringing his expertise and client-focused approach with him.
Joe is passionate about delivering high-quality outcomes and takes pride in managing long-term projects to ensure they run smoothly from start to finish. With experience both in the UK and overseas, his keen eye for detail helps keep projects on track, on time, and within budget.
Outside of work, Joe’s just as busy—whether it’s spending time with his young family and miniature dogs or fitting in a game of rugby whenever he gets the chance.
