Coaching and managerial career

Queens Park Rangers

He 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 2009, he was jointly QPR's caretaker manager for one game with fellow QPR academy coach Marc Bircham. The game was live on TV and away at West Bromwich Albion, the final score of the game was 2–2.[2] He and Bircham were caretaker managers due to the suspension of Jim Magilton for an altercation with Ákos Buzsáky. He has two brothers, who were both professional footballers and on the QPR coaching staff at one point, Joe and Kevin. 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]

Hong Kong Pegasus

On 23 June 2016, Hong Kong Pegasus announced that Gallen would be the club's manager from the 2016–17 Hong Kong Premier League.[3][4] He left the club on 3 November 2016 after struggling to adapt to Hong Kong football.[5]

Charlton Athletic

On 19 April 2017, he joined Charlton Athletic as the club's Head of Recruitment.[6] Steve was appointed as Director of Football on 10 January 2020 soon after Charlton Athletic was taken over by East Street Investments.[7]
