With almost three decades of experience with Cooke Insurance, Jeff is a seasoned professional. His career began in 1983 shortly after receiving his BA from UPEI. His first job was in accounts receivable where he spent the next two years learning the operational side of the business - under the expert direction of his father Charlie, the founder of Cooke Insurance. It was at this early stage in his career that the foundation of success at Cooke Insurance - service, respect, and integrity became Jeff's operating standards.

Continuing in his close working relationship with his father, Jeff spent the next 10 years in sales - at first specializing in home and auto insurance. It wasn't long before Jeff realized he was "meant to be in sales" - an awareness that eventually lead Jeff to discover his niche in business insurance.

In 1990 Jeff was promoted to President of Cooke Insurance. As President, Jeff is dedicated to delivering nothing less than competitive products, innovative insurance solutions and service excellence to their growing customer base. As an entrepreneur Jeff is an "out-of-the-box" thinker, an expert corporate strategist, and a visionary - traits that have, and will continue to serve the company very well into the future.    

A typical day at work finds Jeff balancing his duties as President with his role as a Business Insurance Consultant specializing in the manufacturing, construction, and tourism sectors. Business insurance truly is Jeff's niche - as an entrepreneur himself, his clients have come to value his advice from his ability to see things "from their side of the fence". Jeff also enjoys the challenge of solving "difficult to insure exposures". As he says, "There is not a business in PEI we can't insure. The days of dealing with large, off-island brokerages are gone."
