Meet the new President: A Conversation with Albertina Albors-Llorens
Join us for a special virtual conversation with Albertina Albors-Llorens, the new President of St John’s College, as she reflects on her journey to St John’s, her time at the College since 2014 and her path to the presidency.
In this engaging session, Albertina will share what drew her to the role, what the presidency involves, and the early insights she has gained since taking up office. She will also look ahead, discussing her hopes and aspirations for St John’s in the years to come.
This event offers a unique opportunity to hear directly from the President about leadership, service and the future of the College.

Following the completion of her PhD, Professor Albors-Llorens was a British Academy postdoctoral Fellow at the Centre for European Legal Studies in the Faculty of Law and a Research Fellow at Girton College until 1999, when she took up a College Lectureship, also at Girton. A few years later, she was appointed to a University Lectureship and moved to a Fellowship at St John’s in 2014. Following successive promotions, she was appointed to a Personal Chair in 2019, serving as Deputy Chair of the Faculty for the next three years. She was a co-editor of the Yearbook of European Law (Oxford University Press) between 2015 and 2022 and a case note editor for the Cambridge Law Journal between 2010 and 2021.
Professor Albors-Llorens teaches in a range of undergraduate and postgraduate courses in the Faculty of Law, including the core European Union law course and the optional competition law course in Part II of the Law Tripos. In the LLM, she teaches in the EU trade law, the constitutional law of the EU and the competition law courses. She supervises in EU law and competition law for St John’s students and students from other colleges. She is the recipient of a Pilkington Prize for Excellence in University teaching and was the University sole nominee for the 2003 National Teaching Awards.
Her research interests lie broadly in the law of the European Union and she is particularly interested in the work of the Court of Justice of the EU in the enforcement of EU rights and in the interaction of competition law with other areas of EU law such as free movement of goods, persons and services and consumer protection law.
