How Pegasus works: desk-based, hands-on and people-facing roles
69.4% of employed residents in Pegasus work in desk-based roles, against 63.6% across New Zealand. Sales workers stand out: 9.8% of employed residents here, against 7.8% nationally. That is a lot of reading and writing work. Projects and long-document skills pay back across most of the workforce, so a foundations session for everyone, then a rollout plan, is the usual path.
