170 Queen's Gate, the President's ex officio residence

The president of Imperial College London is the highest academic official of Imperial College London.[1] The president is the chief executive and is elected by the council of the college and chairman of the senate.[2] The position is currently held by Hugh Brady, who succeeded Alice Gast in August 2022.

In 2012 the responsibilities were separated into two posts, the president & rector (later simplified to president) whose duty is to "promote Imperial's position as a global university" and provost who is "responsible for advancing and delivering the College's core academic mission - education, research and translation."[3] From 2013, Alice Gast served as president & rector, while James Stirling became the first provost of Imperial College London in August 2013.[4]

The president's residence is a large house on Queen's Gate, at the southwest corner of the college's campus in South Kensington, London.
