Client Testimonials

Thank you Andrea and Jane for making this whole process so incredible! I want you to know that the way you both saw the process through from start to finish made me feel valued and supported every step of the way - so I really want to thank you for that.

Anonymous Candidate

Engaging with Sheffield and having Louise as our lead on the recruitment for our CE position was a great decision. Louise listened to our requirements, focus areas, our communities values/challenges and was extremely professional. Her knowledge and experience guided and advised us throughout this process to a fantastic outcome. I would highly recommend Louise and her team for the recruitment process. Their vast experience and knowledge in the local government sector helped us through this process to a positive outcome for our council.

Tania Gibson, Mayor, Grey District Council

Sheffield once again delivered an outcome that we’re very happy with. I have used Sheffield and worked with Andrea over the last 10 years and have had excellent service and results each time. When we reshaped the role, we knew Sheffield were the company to go with to lift the status of the role and get the results that we required. Andrea was excellent working with both us as the client and the candidates and the professionalism and mechanics of Sheffield gave us an excellent result

Andy Doherty, Chief Executive, Nova Trust

We felt a position at this level required expertise and skills and Sheffield could deliver on this. The process was well structured and Sheffield saved us alot of time through running the process instead of us. For a potentially difficult to fill role, we were very happy with the outcome and Will is exceptional.

Kent Krammer, General Manager NZ, Novus Glass

Having engaged Sheffield, on the basis of their previous performance, to assist Nova Trust with the recruitment and appointment of 2 new Trustees I can advise that we have been pleased with the professionalism of their service throughout the process which resulted in a successful outcome.
