Scots law firm and estate agent Watermans have started the year off with a bang, with their recent appointment of Kirsty Millar as Property Sales Manager coinciding with the team winning gold in two categories at the British Property Awards.

Watermans hits the ground running in 2026 with new appointment and British Property Awards success

Kirsty joins the team at Watermans following over a decade of success in her previous role with a well-known Scottish estate agent. Driving growth initiatives and strengthening client relationships in her new role as Property Sales Manager, Kirsty will oversee the firm’s property marketing and sales strategies and ensure that Watermans clients continue to receive the high-quality service they expect from the company.

Watermans win gold at British Property Awards

This quality customer service is reflected in the company’s recent success at the British Property Awards, where they secured the gold award for Glasgow (G2) for the second successive year, and were also crowned best estate agency team overall in Scotland. Estate agents across the UK are automatically entered into the competition, meaning no entry fee is charged and results are based solely on the performance of the company, which is judged on a comprehensive set of criteria relating to both sale performance and outstanding levels of customer service.

Reflecting on her new role, Kirsty says: “I’m feeling positive about this role. It’s a great opportunity to lead the team, streamline processes and drive the estate agency division forward. I can already see the huge potential in the team, and I’m looking forward to supporting everyone so we can deliver the best results for our clients.”

My values align with those of Watermans; I am highly responsive and clear in my communication, so clients always know where they stand, which is central to Watermans commitment to providing straightforward legal and property advice. Overall, I bring a mix of client empathy, strong communication, and teamwork that will support both great customer outcomes and a successful, high-performing branch.”
