Gallen was employed for almost two decades at Queens Park Rangers, and first joined the Academy coaching setup in 1997, as the under-12s coach. In December 2009, he and fellow academy coach Marc Bircham jointly assumed managerial duties for a match against West Bromwich Albion, after manager Jim Magilton was suspended; the game finished 2-2.[2] He was in the position of Senior Professional Development Coach, coach of the QPR U21 side, from 2014 to 2015, when he was promoted to First Team Coach. He left the club on 30 January 2016.[citation needed]
