Alberts took over as manager and head coach of Sarawak FA for the second time in 2011.[4] He had managed the team before in 2008–2009 before going to Indonesia. He held the post until his contract with Sarawak was mutually terminated in 2015, due to poor performances of the team in 2015 Malaysia Super League.[5][6] During his stay in Sarawak, the team won the Premier League in 2013 and were runners-up in 2011, on both times winning promotion to the Super League. Sarawak also reached the semi-finals of Malaysia Cup in 2013 with Alberts at the helm.

In June 2016, he came back to PSM Makassar after his left on 2011.[7] On 2018 Liga 1, he managed the team to finish on the second place in the final table.[8]

Alberts left PSM due to his health condition, however, he signed contract for Persib Bandung prior to 2019 Liga 1 after Persib sacked Miljan Radović. It made many PSM fans disappointed.[8][9] He led Persib to reach runner-up on 2021–22 Liga 1.[10] On 10 August 2022, following the pressure by Bobotoh, Persib fans, the club announced his resignation. However in 2024, Alberts signed with Persib Bandung to be the club technical director[11][12]
