Ian, Raewyn and Kelly did a tremendous job helping the Hockey New Zealand Board distill down the key skills we needed in our CEO, and ultimately assisted us with a comprehensive and efficient interview and selection process. We could not have asked for more.

Mike Bignell, Chair, NZ Hockey

Mike and the team at Sheffield provided a fantastic service. There was a really robust process that resulted in some great applicants for us to consider....and are very happy with the outcome.

Will Doughty, Chief Executive Officer, Kaikoura District Council

The correspondence, interview experience and application process from start to finish was absolutely brilliant. The care and way you all went about handling the process with sensitivity and as real people (not the usual impersonal forms and automated responses) made it all the more reassuring. I particularly appreciated your transparency in correspondence and in your candidate briefing pack about the stages of the process, with clear expectations from the outset. Thank you. Not just because of the outcome, this has been the most professionally managed recruitment process I've ever experienced. Please also pass on my thanks again to Andrea, I enjoyed our conversations - her warmth and energy was a joy!

It is always a pleasure dealing with a professional, knowledgeable, personable and efficient group of people that understand our business and recruitment needs and our “fit”.

Guy Gaddum, Chair, QRS

I just wanted to thank you for all your help in the process. Obviously you need to be objective and fair for every applicant, but you do so in such a professional manner whilst being hugely supportive and lovely to talk/correspond with. So... thank you. I genuinely feel you have helped me land what really is, a dream job for me.
