Whether the move to a leadership position is a lateral move or a promotion from your current role, hiring managers will always look to hear personal motivators for making a move to their job. The NHS wants to learn more about why you've decided to apply and pursue their opportunity for the right reasons.

"As you can see from my resume, I've been building and honing my leadership skills over the past five years, and a dear friend alerted me about this opportunity when I wasn't actively looking for a new role. Your mission here at the NHS is so exciting, and I would be honoured to be a part of it in leading a vibrant and impactful team. As I've read about the opportunity and learned more from you today, this has been even further confirmed for me."

Openly discuss what motivates you about this opportunity, then explain what makes the role with the NHS appealing to you. Rather than go on about your current role and your desire to leave, focus on what it is about this role that appeals to you and why you feel you will succeed in it.
