Joseph Cooper

Head of Marketing and Business Innovation, Ad Hoc Property Management

Having spent two years working on housing and sanitation programs in countries such as Bolivia India and Nepal, Joseph applied his knowledge to a Masters in International Development. During his studies he also focused his research on UK housing initiatives both in the commercial and public sector that showed particular innovation in tackling the issue of housing wastage.

Joseph now works for Ad Hoc Property Management, promoting the need to recycle empty buildings for the benefit of property owners and for individuals seeking low cost accommodation. Through his work Joseph negotiates with public and private sector property owners to manage large property portfolios which would otherwise stand empty and boarded up until sale or redevelopment works proceed.
