Isaac Newton’s first job was as a deputy bailiff of the town of Grantham, which he held in 1664.
At this time, he was also a student at the University of Cambridge. The bailiff’s duties included overseeing the town’s business and maintaining order. This position allowed Newton to gain valuable experience in management and the law, even as he continued to pursue his studies in mathematics and physics, laying the groundwork for his future groundbreaking contributions to science.
