more about Edinburgh
 Agilent
Edinburgh is a powerhouse of new product development. We design
and manufacture market-leading test products for the fast
growing world of international communications. With over 90%
of our output going in export, we're now the global leader
in management systems for the next generation of telecoms
networks. And our products drive more connections on the Internet
than any other company.
We're just 15 minutes from the heart of Edinburgh. Which
means that all the attractions of the UK's fastest growing
centre are almost on your doorstep. A stunning setting, historic
architecture, a huge range of cinemas, theatres, restaurants
– and probably the best shopping and socialising outside
of London. Not forgetting, of course, the internationally
known Arts Festival. Or the equally famous New Year celebrations.
And within an hour, you can be enjoying the beauty of the
Highlands. Exploring the coastline of Fife. Golfing. Fishing.
Sailing. Or simply taking in a blast of fresh country air.
Scotland, of course, has an excellent reputation for high
standards of education. And you'll find a wide variety of
housing to fit all budgets within half an hour's drive of
the Agilent site. There's also plenty of reasonably priced
rented accommodation available in the city. Our location (right
next to the Forth road and rail bridges) means you have lots
of choice about where to live – and some wonderful locations
from which to choose.
