Sekitar 1736 Whitehurst memulai usaha sendiri di Derby, yang mana ia kemudian mendapat banyak pekerjaan, yang membedakan dirinya dari yang lain dengan membuat peralatan mekanik yang berbeda. Berbeda dengan pekerjaan lainnya ia membuat jam untuk balai kota, dan sebagai penghargaan ia mendapat gelar "burgess" pada 6 September 1737. Ia juga membuat [[termometer]], [[barometer]], dan beberapa peralatan ilmu pengetahuan lainnya, serta ia amat tertarik merancang peralatan yang berhubungan dengan air. Di hampir semua pekerjaan khusus di Derbyshire ia nyaris selalu terlibat sebagai konsultan, terutama terkait pekerjaan yang memerlukan keahlian [[mekanika]], [[pneumatik]], dan [[hidraulik]].
 
Tahun 1774, Whitehurst mendapatkan posisi di [[Royal Mint]], [[London]]. Tahun 1775, pada proses pembuatan pengamanan yang lebih baik untuk uang koin emas, tanpa ada halangan ia ditunjuk untuk pembuatan mesin pencetak uang atas rekomendasi Adipati Newcastle.<ref>{{en}} {{cite web | title = Industrial Revolution: A Documentary History | url = http://www.adam-matthew-publications.co.uk/digital_guides/industrial_revolution/brief%20chronology.aspx | accessdate = 2008-04-25 |archive-date = 2010-03-27 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20100327164500/http://www.adam-matthew-publications.co.uk/digital_guides/industrial_revolution/brief%20chronology.aspx |dead-url = yes }}</ref> Whitehurst pindah ke London, dimanadi mana sisa hidupnya dilewati untuk mengejar ilmu pengetahuan, dan dimanadi mana rumahnya di Colt Court, Fleet Street (sebelumnya menjadi tempat tinggal [[James Ferguson (1710–1776)|James Ferguson]]) sering dikunjungi ilmuwan-ilmuwan terkenal.
 
Tahun 1778 Whitehurst mempublikasikan teori tentang strata geologi di ''Sebuah Penelitian dalam Bentuk Asli dan Formasi Bumi'' (''An Inquiry into the Original State and Formation of the Earth''). Rencana semula untuk pekerjaan ini, yang sudah mulai dilakukan sejak ia tinggal di Derby, adalah untuk menyiapkan penemuan mineral berharga di bawah permukaan Bumi. Ia mengupayakan risetnya dengan terlalu bersemangat sehingga mempengaruhi kesehatannya.

9 Januari 1745 Whitehurst menikah dengan Elizabeth Gretton, putri dari George Gretton, rektor dari Trusley dan Dalbury di Derbyshire. Setelah Whitehurst meninggal tahun 1788 di rumahnya di Bolt Court, Fleet Street, ia dimakamkan disamping makam istrinya di St. Andrew's di pemakaman Gray's Inn Koad. Mereka tidak memiliki keturunan.
 
Diperkirakan Whitehurst menjadi model pada lukisan [[Joseph Wright]] tentang filsuf yang mempelajari [[A Philosopher Lecturing on the Orrery|orrery]].<ref>{{en}} [http://www.bygonederbyshire.co.uk/stories/8203-1700s-patriot-links-Derby/article-1737506-detail/article.html Bygonederbyshire.co.uk:1700s: US patriot and his links to Derby]{{Pranala mati|date=Februari 2021 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} diakses 29 Mei 2011</ref>
