He had previously served as customs officer on East Falkland Island in 1907,[5] in which position he supervised the activities of whaling companies.[6]
In 1912, Binnie became the first Resident Magistrate of Graham Land and the South Shetland Islands;[7] in 1914, he was transferred to South Georgia.
In 1922, he officiated at the funeral of Ernest Shackleton.[8][9]
In 1923, Binnie vacationed in Norway, where he met and married Margrethe Larsen; she came with him to the sub-Antarctic territories, but became homesick, and in 1927 he resigned his post so that they could move back to Norway.[5]
The Binnie Peaks of South Georgia are named in his honor.[10]
