The president of the Province of Terni is the head of the provincial government in Terni, Umbria, Italy. The president oversees the administration of the province, coordinates the activities of the municipalities, and represents the province in regional and national matters.

History
The Province of Terni was established in 1927 by the Fascist government. Local autonomy had been abolished and provincial administrations were placed under central control, with appointed officials replacing elected presidents.[4][5]
After the establishment of the Italian Republic, the office was restored and the president was again elected by the Provincial Council starting from 1952. In 1995, a reform introduced the direct election of the president by popular vote.[4] The Province of Terni was eventually reformed in 2014 under national legislation on provinces, with its functions reduced in favour of the Umbria region and local municipalities.[6]
