No. The country is a hereditary monarchy. The present monarch is Queen Elizabeth II.
Great Britain is not a country. If you are referring to the United Kingdom, it is a parliamentary constitutional monarchy; the head of state is the monarch - there is no president.

∙ 13y agoThe United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland has a Prime Minister as Head of Government. The Head of State is Queen Elizabeth the Second.
In the Parliamentary system (in the monarchies of the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Jamaica, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Thailand, Japan etc. and the republics of Israel, Germany, Russia, France, South Africa, India, Pakistan, and many other countries) the Head of State and the Head of Government are two separate offices.
In the Congressional system (which applies in the United States, the Latin American republics, the Philippines, Zimbabwe and a number of other countries) the two offices are both held by the President.
The British Prime Minister is technically appointed by the Queen, but the person appointed is always the leader of the party (or coalition) that has gained the greatest number of seats in the lower house of Parliament (the House of Commons) in a general election.
The dates of general elections are not fixed, as in the US, but can be called by the Prime Minister at any time with as little as two weeks notice, only provided that there cannot be more than five years between general elections.
