The East Lothian Way
Our values, and the behaviours which support them known as the East Lothian Way, help us meet the objectives of our organisation. We expect all our employees to be familiar and be able to demonstrate the values and behaviours in their everyday work. If you are invited to interview for any of our vacancies you may be asked questions based on these, so it is a good idea to familiarise yourself with them.
