He was returned as a Member of Parliament for the rotten borough of Old Sarum in the 1802 election.

He was the brother of James Alexander, who was also a Member of Parliament for Old Sarum, and who bought the patronage of the borough in 1820 from their cousin, The 2nd Earl of Caledon. He was also the brother of Josias du Pré Alexander.
