Before You Apply… Read This

Bridges Lettings is launching in Spring 2026 as a brand new division of Bridges Properties. This is an opportunity to help build a lettings business from the ground up, backed by the number one estate agency in West Lothian. But it will be fast-paced, intense and at times messy.

If you are proactive, driven and excited by building something new…
If you want to be part of something ambitious with real opportunity for growth…Then we want to hear from you.
