Describe your ideal manager and how you like to be managed.

"I have always valued a leader who keeps lines of communication open and who I feel comfortable approaching if I have a concern or need assistance. Additionally, I think it's important for a leader to be supportive and inclusive when it comes to listening to the feedback, ideas, and opinions of others. These are values I would bring here as an NHS team leader and values I would expect out of the person in charge of me in this role."

Research the culture of the NHS and, if possible, the background and education of the person you're interviewing with before your interview. As you answer, consider past jobs and the best leader you had. Think about what traits or habits they demonstrated that made them someone you enjoyed working under and collaborating with. In your response, explain some of the qualities you're looking for in a leader but also demonstrate that you're flexible and work well under different management styles.
