For the purposes of transparency, I work at King’s College London and I feel this page would benefit from some updated text and a more balanced approach.
Have added the following text under Career:
Professor Trainor was Vice-Chancellor of the University of Greenwich (2000–2004). Prior to this appointment, he was Senior Vice-Principal of the University of Glasgow. He became Principal of King's College London in 2004, where he is also Professor of Social History. In 2009 the title of President of King’s was added.
Between 2007 and 2009 Rick served as President of Universities UK (UUK) [2], the organisation that represents the heads of all UK Universities. In this role he engaged with the new Department of Innovation, Universities and Skills and latterly, successor Department of Business, Innovation and Skills, on a wide range of issues including autonomy, funding, research, standards and immigration.
He served on the Confederation of British Industries’ Higher Education Task Force from 2008-2009.[3]

I have added further information to Trainor's career section:
In 2010 King’s was named UK Sunday Times University of the Year.
Professor Trainor oversaw the College’s role in the creation of King’s Health Partners in 2009, an academic health science centre, in which King’s College London collaborates with Guy’s and St Thomas’s Hospitals, King’s College Hospital and South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trusts.
During Professor Trainor’s tenure, in 2009 King’s finally acquired the East Wing of Somerset House , after 180 years of intermittent negotiations between King’s and Somerset House Trust. Somerset House East Wing was opened by Her Majesty The Queen in February 2012 . lcjt 15:18, 1 June 2012 (UTC)
