He is also a nationally accredited mediator with extensive experience in dispute resolution.

Before entering the legal profession, Douglas held roles as a senior economist in both the Victorian and Commonwealth governments. He has served as a company director and chairperson, and was a foundation commissioner of the Victorian Taxi Services Commission.
