Things to consider:

Flexibility to work at different locations.
A typical working week, is 9-5 with evening shows a couple times per week (12-8pm for example), and sometimes a 1/2 a day over the weekend. However, evenings and weekends will be fairly split between the apprentice and Manager, and any extra time can be taken back. So flexibility really is important.

The Opportunity to become a full time member of the Team after the successful outcome of the Apprenticeship.
