Client Testimonials

The particular points of difference in working with Sheffield were their ability to quickly and accurately identify our needs, their general responsiveness and excellent in-house team who could provide specific insight and skills. Their sensitivity at a difficult time for the school, and addressing this head-on in terms of branding and appropriate messaging in all outward-facing material and response to candidate queries was outstanding. I would recommend Sheffield without question in supporting schools in the recruitment of senior roles.

Johanna Clark, Human Resources Manager, Dilworth Trust Board

Katy and Nick identified and brought forward a very good selection of candidates, with a good mix of capabilities and strengths. This provided a lot of choice for us in the recruitment process. We found that Sheffield provided timely and sound advice throughout the process. I would definitely use Sheffield again.

Mike Hargreaves, DCE - Strategy and Insights, Worksafe NZ

I sung the Sheffield’s teams praises to the recruitment board and will reiterate that I found the process highly: Professional, Personal - felt like a person not just an applicant, Collaborative, Cohesive

Duane Sutton, Candidate

Ian Taylor and the Sheffield Search team stood out in the selection process as having the experience, knowledge of the market, capability and fit that we were looking for. I am very comfortable in recommending Sheffield Search as an Executive Search partner for any educational body recruiting for leadership positions.

Phil Newman, Chair, Orewa College

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
