Client Testimonials

We chose to partner with Sheffield on the appointment of our new Principal as they are a well-established consultancy with a great reputation and deep knowledge and experience within the education sector. We would wholeheartedly endorse Sheffield as our preferred agency and could not fault them during this process.

Simon Green, Chair, Rangiora High School

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.

Gill Chappell, Chairperson, Baradene College of the Sacred Heart

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

Andrea’s professionalism and understanding of our NPO was outstanding. This led to a number of high-quality candidates being presented to the Board for consideration.

Peter Wright, Board Chair, Donaldson Residential Trust

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.
