Willcock was appointed in May 2022. For a couple of matches, he was the assistant manager under Benny Phillips in 2010. He has been around the Northwest non-League scene since he started playing at Flixton. He got a taste of management at Salford City, taking over as player-manager in 2005, before he became Winsford United manager in 2006 and won promotion from North West Counties League (earning manager of the year in the process). He left 2008 but went back in 2010. In between these two stints, he managed Mossley, Woodley Sports and had his brief stint at Celtic. After his second stint with Winsford, he returned to Woodley Sports in 2010. He managed Stocksbridge Park Steeles, before a move across to Glossop North End whom he led to Wembley in 2015 in the FA Vase and earned promotion in the same year. After a stint as manager of Shaw Lane, he became the manager of Ramsbottom United. During his two and a half years he was at the helm during one of Ramsbottom's most successful periods, pushing for promotion alongside Workington. It was to Workington he moved during the Covid pandemic, almost guiding them to promotion, losing out by one point. As well as Flixton, Willcock also played for Warrington Town, Altrincham, Kendal Town, Leigh RMI, Mossley and Ramsbottom.
