Client Testimonials

We recently partnered with Sheffield to find a new Chief Executive for Central Lakes Trust. Sheffield's professional and rigorous process resulted in a high number of suitably qualified candidates and we were delighted with the calibre of the final appointment. Louise Green from Sheffield was a pleasure to work with - she made the process easy for us and was very responsive to our needs over the Christmas/ New Year period. I would highly recommend Sheffield.

Hetty Van Hale, Chair, Central Lakes Trust

After a rethink on the position and Louise helping us become clear on what we really wanted to achieve, we underwent a Search process which resulted in 7 candidates. The work done in the Search space gave us an excellent choice, they were all great candidates, we ended up spoilt for choice.

Richard Wilson, Group CEO, Landpower

Mike and Louise, and their team at Sheffield, made the process of finding the right applicant for our new tier two Chief Operating Officer role feel like a ‘walk in the park’.

Joanna Cranness, People, Safety and Wellbeing Manager, Tasman District Council

I wish to applaud Sheffield for their professional, considerate and thorough approach to recruitment. Sheffield's approach of personal contact, detailed candidate assessment and rigorous evaluation provided me with the assurance I was seeking. It was a pleasure to work with Louise Green and her team

Dave Ward, Group Manager - 3 Waters, Dunedin City Council

We partnered with Sheffield due to their extensive experience in recruiting senior positions within the local government sector. I would have no hesitation recommending Sheffield. They were very professional, provided great communication and the whole process was seamless.

Mayor Kirsten Wise, Napier City Council
