Client Testimonials

From the outset, Sheffield invested the time to truly understand our organisation, our context, our culture, and what success looked like for this role. What really stood out was the team’s professionalism and depth of market insight. The quality of candidate information, combined with thoughtful analysis and guidance, enabled us to move forward with clarity and confidence. The result speaks for itself.

Nicki Brady, Group Manager Capability and Transformation

Person Recruited: Emma Waters, People and Capability Manager

A thorough recruitment process was very well planned and executed, provided a broad range of applicants for selection and a comprehensive candidate review analysis for board consideration. This was managed on a tight deadline over the Christmas/New Year period and culminated in a successful appointment. I would highly recommend Sheffield.

Kerry Wells, Chair, United Flowers Growers Limited

Sheffield continues to be the benchmark in executive recruitment...they have done an outstanding job in finding the right candidates and making the recruitment process streamlined, efficient and very easy for me.

Tony Whale, General Manager, Central Heating NZ

Sheffield delivered in every aspect of the process, showed the utmost professionalism, were a pleasure to work with and most importantly we were able to appoint a Chief Executive that we knew came from a crop second to none and fitted our job description to a tee.

Greg Lang, Mayor, Carterton District Council

They are professional and provide good insight into candidates - I don’t feel as if I was being “sold” a candidate which is good in my books.? There was value having an intermediary when negotiating salary, and a lot of the value is created by trusting the consultant… I would certainly use Sheffield again.

Marcus Waters, GM Commercial and Partnerships, Antartcic Heritage Trust,
