We chose Sheffield for their expertise, strong support structures, and clear communication—qualities that were evident throughout the entire process. Ian Taylor and his team demonstrated a clear understanding of integrated schools and their special character focus, managing the candidates with confidence and professionalism.

Andrea is very professional and also knows us well, she has invested considerable time getting to know us and can give input on things like fit. It is an investment in getting the right resource which is so valuable, especially in the current marketplace.

Christine Prince, Chair, Canterbury West Coast Air Rescue Trust

Sheffield’s support was invaluable in helping us replace our CEO who retired after 15 years. If you are looking for executive level appointments I highly recommend Sheffield and Katy in particular.

John Gommans, Acting Chief Medical and Dental Officer, Hawkes Bay DHB

When recruiting for our Chief Executive we’d heard from other clients that Sheffield were one of the best. They had also just completed hiring an ELT role and I was incredibly impressed by the quality of the process and standard of the candidates shortlisted. The process was incredible. It was clear right from the beginning and even in the tough political environment, we were still provided with a wonderful list of candidates, I can hand on heart say that Sheffield is the best Consultancy in Wellington. They treat their clients and candidates with the highest respect, and go completely out of their way to find the best person for the role

Tory Whanau, Mayor, Wellington City Council

Ian and the team clearly had extensive networks in the education sector which meant we were presented with candidates of exceptional quality and appropriate characteristics. They understood our requirements and led us through a recruitment exercise which was comprehensive, holistic and timely.
