About us
Let's Go Lettings is an exciting new lettings agency based in Portsmouth. Although the agency is brand new, it is led by two experienced directors who each have more than 20 years' experience in the property and lettings industry.
As the business grows, we are looking for an enthusiastic and dependable person to join us at an early stage and become an important part of the team.
This is a great entry-level opportunity for someone looking to begin or develop a career in property. Previous lettings experience would be helpful but is not essential, as full training and support will be provided.
You will be working in a friendly, energetic and fun environment where your contribution will be valued and there will be genuine opportunities to develop your knowledge, take on more responsibility and progress as the agency grows.

·Comfortable using email, telephone systems and basic computer software
·Able to work independently while also contributing to a close-knit team
