"Absolutely. I would love to. This is one of the aspects of this job that most appeals to me, is not only how varied the work it, but how varied the work environment."

Your interviewer wants to know how flexible and adaptable you are, and whether you feel comfortable travelling for work, transferring to other locations, or with working in the field, at a moment's notice. As they detail on their website; "You may be required at short notice to travel to, or work in, other locations in the area you work as an ordinary part of your role, e.g. to cover colleague absences at other local DWP offices or carry out your role on partners' premises. You may also be required to work at a different location to your main office for longer periods on detached duty or for the remainder of your contract." How you answer could potentially inform your interviewer of how prepared you were to hear this question, how familiar you are with the expectations of the job."
