How do I change the file system on my MacBook Pro to allow it to download Big Sur? It needs to be APFS and I'm unsure how?

The information in your profile lists MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.14 ( Mojave ). Is this correct ? Then below indicates there should be no worries with the file system being not APFS

Does this computer qualify for the Big Sur upGrade - see the list here. macOS Big Sur is compatible with these computers

If upgrading from macOS Sierra or later, macOS Big Sur requires 35.5GB of available storage to upgrade. If upgrading from an earlier release, macOS Big Sur requires up to 44.5GB of available storage. To upgrade from OS X Mountain Lion, first upgrade to OS X El Capitan, then upgrade to macOS Big Sur.

A User Tip on How to Upgrade to Big Sur - good to read Before attempting the Big Sur installation.
