Client Testimonials

Andrea is very professional and also knows us well, she has invested considerable time getting to know us and can give input on things like fit. It is an investment in getting the right resource which is so valuable, especially in the current marketplace.

Christine Prince, Chair, Canterbury West Coast Air Rescue Trust

Having started the new role, I could not be happier with cultural and organisational fit, and I have no hesitation in recommending Sheffield for Executive Search and placement.

Jon Ager, Project Director, Antarctica New Zealand

Sheffield worked with us to understand what we wanted to achieve, the type of person we wanted to find, then did a great job researching the market and helping us secure the person we wanted to work with.

Peter Sewell, Director, Rubix

We had used Sheffield before in the search for a Trustee and we felt we could rely on Sheffield to get the job done. We knew Sheffield would get out into the market and the search would be thorough. It was a very pleasant and professional experience.

Rebecca Lindo, Chair, The Piano

I am very aware of how good the Sheffield Search facility is, and at this level, Search is a very important part of the process. There was also a value-add through Mike’s perceptibility – he is very astute when it comes to reading candidates

Jane Huria, Board Chair, UniMed
