Graham-Montgomery entered the House of Commons in 1852 as a member for Peeblesshire, and held the seat until 1868, when it was united with that of Selkirk. He was returned for the newly unified constituency, and held it through 1880.

In 1885 his daughter Alice married Richard Temple-Nugent-Brydges-Chandos-Grenville, 3rd Duke of Buckingham and Chandos but she had no children.

He was a junior Lord of the Treasury from 1866 until 1868. He was also Lord Lieutenant of Kinross-shire from 1854 until his death in 1901.

He lived in Kinross House and is buried east of the house on the edge of Loch Leven. His family lie with him.
