Client Testimonials

‘I would highly recommend Sheffield as an executive recruitment agency. I have engaged with Sheffield and in particular Nicholas Buck as both a candidate and client. I have always been impressed with the high degree of professionalism, diligence and attention to detail.

Tom Williams, Chief Infrastructure Officer, Wellington City Council

I would have to say that Sheffield is the most professional well run recruitment agent that I have ever encountered. From a candidate perspective, the prompt communication all throughout the process was fantastic and the thing that stands out the most for me. There is nothing worse as a candidate than waiting around wondering when you might hear about each step in the process. It was the same when I dealt with Mike on a position a few years ago. Absolute gold standard!

Joanne Soderlund, Candidate, Grey District Council

Nick provided sound insight to enable full preparation for the ensuing interviews, as well as asking the challenging questions to ensure suitability for the role. While extremely professional, his easy-going manner and great support team behind him made the employment process an enjoyable one.

Adrian van Dyk, General Manager, Resonant

It was great to work with Mike again on a critical role for the MTF business. With the required preparation, patience and robust process the resulting successful placement has been first class.

Mark Darrow, Chair, Motor Trade Finance

In a Covid-19 year the job market has been tough for candidates and recruitment companies alike, however my interaction with Louise, as a candidate, was a standout amongst the crowd. I found Louise pro-active and responsive to my enquiry, and Louise is backed by a very organised and professional team who enabled our interaction to be seamless and successful.
