Brendan Gallen

Brendan provides strategic direction grounded in research and evidence, helping clients move from insight to decisive action.
Brendan’s work begins with people: who an organisation needs to reach, who represents the organisation, what matters to them, and why. With more than twenty years’ experience spanning market research, marketing communications and marketing strategy, he has an in-depth understanding of audiences, data, and how to turn evidence into strategy organisations can really apply.

Before joining The Foundation, Brendan held senior roles in both agency and in-house environments, advising major cultural and commercial organisations. At The Foundation, he uses this experience to bring clarity and direction to projects, to facilitate senior teams in their strategy development, enabling clients to balance purpose and practical delivery while still making a measurable impact.
