Executive Search, Assessment, Board & Leadership Advisory Services | New Zealand

We have previously partnered with Sheffield and been impressed with their service and professionalism. I appreciate Louise’s honesty when working with her and the capability of the Search team works very well. Sheffield is well connected across a variety of industries, and I knew with this being a specialised role, Sheffield would have their fingers on the pulse. This role had tight timeframes that we highlighted from the outset and Sheffield were able to deliver on this.

Francesca Eathorne, CEO, Antarctic Heritage Trust

Ian, Raewyn and Kelly did a tremendous job helping the Hockey New Zealand Board distill down the key skills we needed in our CEO, and ultimately assisted us with a comprehensive and efficient interview and selection process. We could not have asked for more.

Mike Bignell, Chair, NZ Hockey

Ian Taylor led the team responsible for our board appointments. Ian is an outstanding leader and his fingerprints are embedded in our successful search. What stood out for me was Sheffield’s ability to gain a close understanding of our business, quickly translate that into rigorous and targeted research and search activity whilst communicating seamlessly and constructively throughout the entire process.

Mark Newman, former Board Member, MOVe Logistics

I knew of Sheffield’s reputation in the Education sector and had heard great things. Everything worked well throughout this assignment and the communications were top notch. The reach you were able to achieve to candidates was exceptional and we never would have been able to get to those candidates, this was a huge advantage.

Cathy Ewing, Chair, Outdoor Education of New Zealand

Person Recruited: Rachel Honeycombe, International Student Recruitment and Marketing Manager

We chose to partner with Sheffield on the appointment of a Communications Manager based on the fact that Sheffield have established an excellent relationship with the Catholic Diocese of Christchurch, and really “get” our organisation. As a faith based not-for-profit organisation our requirements don’t always fit the typical recruitment profile, but Andrea really understands our business, our people and how we operate, which is of key importance when finding good candidates.
