Services offered

Four ways we work with you.

Engagements run from a single board mandate to sustained work alongside a founding team, across corporate strategy, branding, management, leadership, sustainability, and diversity and inclusion. Choose a service to read what it covers.

Aviation

We provide professional advisory services in every area of aviation. We cover all aspects from luxury and private aviation, advanced air mobility and eVTOL, commercial aviation, via defence and military cooperation, oil and gas transportation and air medical projects, through to regulatory inquiries.

Our team and our partners are highly recognised industry specialists with global experience and international reach.

Maritime

The combination of owning a mega yacht and a luxury helicopter provides the ultimate freedom, but the commercial operation of both together can be very complicated. Pegasus Consilium provides professional advice from an early project stage, reducing the overall risks and enhancing the successful ultimate experience.

Yacht brokerage and yacht project management are part of our expertise. Contact us for any inquiries in the area of luxury yachting.

Why specialists

Why should you pick us?

The importance of experience

Specialist knowledge, not general management advice.

Maritime and aviation carry complex regulatory frameworks, demanding technical requirements and operational challenges that do not appear in other industries. Our advisors have worked inside these sectors long enough to know how the intricacies actually resolve: what a regulator will accept, where a programme timeline really goes, which parts of a business model hold once the aircraft or the vessel is in service.

35 years of experience

A career in transportation and luxury travel at chief executive and board level, reaching into high-end hospitality and leisure.

Attention to detail

Technical requirements, certification paths and operating realities read closely, not summarised from a distance.

A global network

Partners and specialists across markets, so an engagement is never limited to one jurisdiction or one regulator.

01

Specialised expertise

In-depth knowledge of the intricacies and complexities of the maritime and aviation sectors, with insights, best practices and guidance tailored to their specific needs.

02

Regulatory compliance

Both sectors are highly regulated for safety, security and environmental reasons. We interpret the regulations, develop compliance strategies and implement processes that align with industry standards.

03

Risk management

Identifying, assessing and managing risk: risk assessments, mitigation strategies and safety management systems that reduce exposure and improve overall safety and security.

04

Industry connections

Extensive networks across maritime and aviation, used to facilitate collaborations, open access to specialist resources, and connect organisations with the right stakeholders.

05

Strategic planning and business development

Market research and industry analysis, growth opportunities, business strategy, feasibility assessment and the evaluation of investments or partnerships.

06

Efficiency and cost optimisation

Assessments that find the bottlenecks, then strategies to streamline operations, raise productivity and reduce cost, improving financial performance.

07

Crisis management and response

Crisis management plans, response protocols and communication strategies, so an emergency is met with effective decisions, limited reputational damage and a clear path to recovery.

08

Sustainability and decarbonisation

Sustainability strategy and governance for two industries under real pressure to decarbonise, with the diversity, inclusion and cultural communication that make a change programme hold inside an organisation.

About

Who you are actually working with.

Charlotte Pedersen, founder of Pegasus Consilium, seated on a balcony ledge.
Charlotte Pedersen
Chief Executive Officer & Owner, Pegasus Consilium S.à r.l.

An experienced and respected non-executive director of public listed companies, including a FTSE 250 company, and an effective committee chair. The background is executive: more than 35 years in the transportation and luxury travel industry, with a standing network reaching into high-end hospitality and leisure.

The work has consistently produced profitable growth in EBITDA, reached by focusing the business portfolio, developing the organisation, finding operational efficiency, and staying at the forefront of the industry rather than following it.

A team player by instinct, motivated by building organisations and teams with passion, creativity and a positive atmosphere. Complexity, challenge and innovation are the interesting parts of the job; so are education and new technology.

Questions

Common questions.

Do you advise private helicopter and VIP operators?

Yes. We advise the companies that own, operate and finance rotary-wing fleets: private and VIP helicopter operators, charter businesses, offshore oil and gas transport, and air medical services. Work covers fleet and route strategy, operational efficiency, safety and risk governance, and the commercial model behind the flying.

We are an advisory firm, not a charter broker. If you are looking to book a private helicopter flight, an operator or broker will serve you better than we can.

Do you advise on mega yachts and luxury yachting?

Yes. Owning a mega yacht and a luxury helicopter together provides the ultimate freedom, but operating both commercially can be very complicated. We advise from an early project stage to reduce the overall risks and improve the end result. Yacht brokerage and yacht project management are part of our expertise.

What does an aviation consultant actually do?

In practice it is three things: setting direction, pressure-testing decisions before they are expensive to reverse, and sitting in the room where they are made. That means corporate strategy, governance and board effectiveness, organisational and operational design, sustainability strategy, and support through regulatory inquiries.

Can you help an eVTOL or advanced air mobility start-up?

This is core work. We joined the Revo founding team to build and test the business model behind an urban air mobility platform, alongside Omni Helicopters International. For an advanced air mobility programme we typically work on the commercial model, certification and regulatory strategy, partner and investor relationships, and the organisational design needed to carry a programme from concept into service.

Do you take non-executive director and board roles?

Yes. Charlotte Pedersen serves as a non-executive director of public listed companies, including a FTSE 250 company, and as a committee chair. Board mandates, certified directors training, governance competencies and the ability to challenge executives are all part of the practice.

Do you offer mentorship for younger professionals?

Yes. Mentorship covers career opportunities, personal coaching, CV development, motivation and support. If you are a young professional who wishes to challenge the next steps in your career, reach out for a talk with our team.

Where are you based, and where do you work?

The firm is registered in Luxembourg and works across Europe and internationally. Engagements are staffed from a network of industry practitioners, so an assignment is not limited to one jurisdiction or one regulator.
