The Commissioner is supported by a single Deputy Commissioner, as well as a number of Assistant Commissioners, currently 19—16 responsible for commanding each of the 16 operational divisions of the APP, and one each for the APP Counterterrorism Corps, the APP Air Corps and the APP Covert Operations Corps.

The Office of the APP Commissioner as well as the Office of the Deputy Commissioner are located at Decoteau Station in Edmonton. The incumbent Commissioner of the APP is Curtis Zablocki, in office since 30 September 2018.
