Hi Greg,
Everything will be explained on the day but the format will look like this:

Thank you for getting back to me Alex, I appreciate your reply.
Can you give me any advice on what the interview may look like so I can do some preparation please.
Thank you.

No problem at all 🙂
The interview would be competency based, so would be worth thinking about past work experiences where you've enjoyed successes, faced challenges, solved problems, etc, so that you can then refer to these in your answers. There's lots of guidance available online if you search for "competency based interview preparation".
I hope that helps.
