In 2011, when he was 19 years old, he was selected to participate at the Track Cycling World Championships, where he won the bronze medal in the Men's omnium. One year later, at the World Championships in Melbourne, he finished ninth in the same event and became Madison World Champion.

At the 2012 Summer Olympics, he competed in the Men's team pursuit for the Belgian national team, and the men's omnium.[6][7]

Van Hoecke won the bronze medal at the Madison in the 2013 European Track Championships. During that year, he also won his first six-day race in Amsterdam.

In 2014, Van Hoecke won the Internationale Wielertrofee Jong Maar Moedig road race. In May 2018, he was named in the startlist for the 2018 Giro d'Italia.[8]

In August 2018 he announced that he would join the CCC Team for 2019, working as a domestique for his training partner, Greg Van Avermaet.[9] Van Hoecke remained with the team into the 2020 season; that August, it was announced that Van Hoecke would join the AG2R Citroën Team on a two-year contract, from the start of the 2021 season.[3]
