Client Testimonials

We chose to partner with Sheffield on the appointment of our new Principal as they are a well-established consultancy with a great reputation and deep knowledge and experience within the education sector. We would wholeheartedly endorse Sheffield as our preferred agency and could not fault them during this process.

Simon Green, Chair, Rangiora High School

As TradeZones Independent Director, I steered the Board towards appointing Sheffield based on other and recent excellent experiences with Ian Taylor and his team. Sheffield’s progress with the task to find a new General Manager was excellent. All round, I think the Board of TradeZone and I are well pleased with the approach, the cadence of the task, and the outcome, so have no hesitation in recommending Sheffield Search.

Mark Gilbert, Independent Director, TradeZone

I recently had the pleasure of working with Louise, Kelly and the team at Sheffield to recruit our new Manager – Science & Technology. Having experienced a recruitment process with Sheffield as a candidate myself, I was confident that the team would provide a service that was both professional and thorough. Sheffield were communicative throughout the process, ensuring we were kept up to date on progress. We were really impressed with the calibre of candidates, and were fully supported throughout the interview and selection process.

Abby Matthews, Director - Environment Quality, Taranaki Regional Council

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

"Sheffield have undertaken a number of successful engagements for organisations that I have led or been a part of over many years..I would recommend Sheffield as being a professional organization with an excellent understanding of what is required to find the right person to fill important roles."
