One of the things we’re most proud of at Pegasus is our culture. Good culture comes from the top and is championed by our very own Head of People and Culture Pru Killick.
Pru recently appeared on the NewyTechPeople podcast to talk all things Pegasus with Linda Apostolidis. In their conversation, Pru shares what makes our people and software unique, as well as exciting opportunities available at Pegasus and our plans for the future.

4:45 How centralizing information within our software works for our clients.
“The beauty of the system with us is that you can centralise all of that information for the client but also standardize all of those protocols to get to site.”
6:00 How Pegasus is scaling our solution globally.
“It’s enabling us to show the power of the product and how it is able to do this no matter where you are in the world, you’re able to bring these same standard practices into any workforce, anywhere.”
