"Mike Stenhouse was great to work with during the short-listing process. His service was timely, he added a valuable perspective to the interview panel, and liaised effectively with long and short-listed candidates"

David Stevens, General Manager People, Culture & Communication, PowerNet

YNZ requested proposals from 3 consultancies. Above all, Sheffield stood out as the consultancy with the right experience and a strong market reputation to match. Sheffield invested the time necessary to learn about YNZ, our culture and our requirements. Ian Taylor, from Sheffield, is widely respected and undertook to be fully immersed in leading our project (which he delivered on). My recommendation would be, get Ian Taylor on the team!

Person Recruited: Steve Armitage, Chief Executive Officer

This is the fourth time we have used Sheffield to fill a senior management position in one of our businesses. The Sheffield team are professional, knowledgeable and passionate to find the right fit for our business.

Paul Croft, CEO, Infinity Investment Group

Sheffield is known as one of New Zealand’s top level recruitment businesses and so it was a pleasure engaging with them and together creating the pathway to appoint a new CEO for a new organisation. Value was added every step of the way, from drafting documents to Sheffield’s expertise in assessing candidates in relation to the position and level of maturity of the organisation. In many ways Sheffield shared our vision. As a high-trust, high-calibre business partner I would certainly recommend Sheffield. Katy, Patrick and Shona and the organisation that sits behind them are a great team.

Alastair Bell, Chair, MIT and Unitec Council

Person Recruited: Christina Hong, Chief Executive

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.
