Before accessing a ministerial portfolio, Douiri held the position of "Président du Directoire" in RMA-Watanya, the insurance division of Othman Benjelloun's financial holding company. In April 2013, while King Mohammed VI was on vacation in France, Hamid Chabat Secretary-General of the Istiqlal Party announced his intentions to leave the coalition that forms the cabinet of Abdelilah Benkirane. Consequently, a resignation request was submitted on 9 July 2013 for all the Party's ministers.
