President's Award
Explanation:
"President's Award" gets slightly more hits than the CEO equivalent when googled together with 社長賞, but again, it may depend on the particular company this refers to (may have preferred English term...)

agree  Roger Johnson: "president" is a direct translation, in this case I do believe it would be refered to as the "CEO`s Award" in the spoken lanuage sense. Sorry I`m late, I just woke up!

agree  Ala Rabie: Generalized terms avoid the risk of using less-generalized ones. Unless vividly oriented terminology happens to appear in the context, I would recommend KathyTさん's answer.
