Executive Search, Assessment, Board & Leadership Advisory Services | New Zealand

YNZ requested proposals from 3 consultancies. Above all, Sheffield stood out as the consultancy with the right experience and a strong market reputation to match. Sheffield invested the time necessary to learn about YNZ, our culture and our requirements. Ian Taylor, from Sheffield, is widely respected and undertook to be fully immersed in leading our project (which he delivered on). My recommendation would be, get Ian Taylor on the team!

Person Recruited: Steve Armitage, Chief Executive Officer

Sheffield has real strength in the culture transformation and development area, which is why we decided to partner with them on the appointment of this newly established position. Sheffield provided a superb service – the whole process was flawless – it was easy, on time and excellently executed.

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

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

We are thrilled with the appointment of Tracy Evans-Tracy (or the successful candidate) who is exactly the ‘unicorn’ we were hoping to find. I have partnered with Sheffield and Louise many times for senior appointments and was reminded once more what fantastic, proactive customer service feels like in the recruitment space.
