The day-to-day administration of Almere is in the hands of the municipal executive, made up of the mayor (Hein van der Loo) and 7 alderpersons.
The mayor is appointed by Royal Decree for a renewable term of 6 years. The alderpersons are appointed for four years by the coalition parties that form a majority in the city council.
The college is advised by the municipal clerk. Similarly to a general manager, they are responsible for all the municipality's civil servants.
The college meets every week. These meetings are not open to the public. Formal decisions are made during these meetings; these are partially open to the public. The (long-term) goals of the college are written in the coalition agreement (in Dutch).
