Rochford was the only British secretary of state between 1760 and 1778 who had been a career diplomat.
Rochford played key roles in the Manila Ransom negotiation with Spain( 1763 – 66), the French acquisition of Corsica( 1768), the Falkland Islands crisis of 1770 – 1, the crisis following the Swedish Revolution of 1772, and the aftermath of the Royal Marriages Act of 1772.

He was a key member of the North administration in the early phase of the American War of Independence.
Illness and a political scandal forced him from office in November 1775.
