The President of the Regional Government of Madeira is the head of the devolved government of the Madeira archipelago, since the Carnation Revolution that established the current democratic regime in Portugal and granted political autonomy to the Portuguese islands.

Following the 1974 Revolution, provisional governing bodies were created, whose presiding officers are listed below.

Alberto João Jardim held the office for more than 38 consecutive years.

For example, Alberto João Jardim served for ten consecutive terms and is counted as the second president (not the seventh, eighth, ninth or tenth president): the Roman numerals refer to the legislature that their terms encompassed.

Carlos Manuel de Azeredo and Joaquim Miguel Duarte Silva served as presidents of the Regional Junta, the provisional government that functioned during the transition towards democracy.
