On 5 March 2018, he became the manager of Lechia Gdańsk.{{cite web |url=http://www.90minut.pl/news/284/news2848417-Piotr-Stokowiec-trenerem-Lechii.html |title=Piotr Stokowiec trenerem Lechii |publisher=90minut |date=5 March 2018 |access-date=9 March 2018 |language=pl}}

On 21 December 2021, he returned to Zagłębie Lubin, signing a two-and-a-half-year contract with his former club.{{cite web |title=Piotr Stokowiec trenerem KGHM Zagłębia Lubin! |url=https://www.zaglebie.com/Aktualnosci/Pierwszy-zespol/piotr-stokowiec-trenerem-kghm-zaglebia-lubin-_n12428 |publisher=Zagłębie Lubin |language=pl |date=21 December 2021}} On 8 November 2022, following five straight league defeats and getting eliminated from the Polish Cup in the round of 32, he was sacked.{{cite web |title=Piotr Stokowiec przestał pełnić funkcję trenera I zespołu |url=https://www.zaglebie.com/Aktualnosci/Pierwszy-zespol/piotr-stokowiec-przestal-pelnic-funkcje-trenera-i-zespolu_n14080 |publisher=Zagłębie Lubin |language=pl |date=8 November 2022}}

On 12 October 2023, Stokowiec was announced as the new manager of ŁKS Łódź. At the time of his appointment, they were placed last in the Ekstraklasa table after 11 rounds of the 2023–24 season.{{cite web |title=Piotr Stokowiec trenerem piłkarzy ŁKS |url=https://lkslodz.pl/aktualnosci/piotr-stokowiec-w-lks/ |publisher=ŁKS Łódź |access-date=12 October 2023 |language=pl |date=12 October 2023}} ŁKS's form did not improve under Stokowiec, as they failed to record a single win across all competitions before his dismissal on 20 February 2024, following a 0–2 Łódź Derby loss against Widzew Łódź two days prior.{{cite web |title=Piotr Stokowiec nie jest już trenerem ŁKS |url=https://lkslodz.pl/aktualnosci/stokowiec-odejscie/ |publisher=ŁKS Łódź |access-date=20 February 2024 |language=pl |date=20 February 2024}}
