Dean of the College of Cardinals
The Dean of the College of Cardinals is the president of the College of Cardinals in the Roman Catholic Church and as such is always a Cardinal of the Holy Roman Church of the episcopal order. The Dean is not necessarily the longest-serving member of the whole College (who might never become a Cardinal Bishop).
