Client Testimonials

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, 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

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

We were really, really happy with the outcome of the recruitment process and would have no hesitation in recommending Sheffield to anyone. Embrace their expertise and knowledge - don’t try and do it yourself.

Stu Myles, Chair, Nova Trust

The New Zealand Brain Research Institute is grateful for your recent assistance in recruiting and placing directors for our Board. We were very pleased with the thorough and seamless process that you followed which resulted in two excellent directors joining us, in full alignment with our brief. We look forward to working with you in the future.

Richard Sudell, Chair, NZ Brain Research Institute
