There are menu entries File -> Open Terminal -> [one for each profile].
Whether it opens a new tab or a new window depends on Edit -> Preferences -> Open new terminals in. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1648337 Title: There's no way to launch terminal tab under chosen profile Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In Ubuntu 14.04, gnome-terminal had menu item, allowing to launch terminal tab using selected profile (from File menu). Thus one can quickly organize tabs as I wish. In Ubuntu 16.04, latest update, gnome-terminal has lost (among other features, compared to 14.04) this menu item. I can only open new terminal with new profile. This menu item should definitely be restored.
