Reign is far to grand a word to say that you were in charge of the office. A king or queen reigns. Sometimes, you'll refer to an "era" when someone was in charge of a large corporation: During Jim Smith's 12-year reign, ABC corporation grew from a 50 million dollar business to a 12 billion dollar global powerhouse.
