We consider the problem of constructing Poisson brackets on smooth manifolds M with prescribed Casimir functions. If M is of even dimension, we achieve our construction by considering a suitable almost symplectic structure on M, while, in the case where M is of odd dimension, our objective is achieved using a convenient almost cosymplectic structure. Several examples and applications are presented.
