Client Testimonials

We used Sheffield for the recruitment of our Business Systems Manager and I really enjoyed working with Andrea. The interviews were run smoothly and she really got us thinking about the questions we were asking to get the right candidate. The process was smooth and well run, we’re really happy with the result.

Stephen Vidulich, Head of Technology, Enviro NZ

Person Recruited: Trevor Jones, Business Systems Manager

"Mike Stenhouse of Sheffield devoted considerable time and energy in discussion and enquiry, understanding the business and its growth and importantly interpreting the “glue” which has essentially kept the board and management close during the good times and bad. I have come out of this process confident of the appointment process and choice made, and grateful for the energy and guidance of Sheffield."

Craig Boyce, Chair, TransDiesel

"Sheffield have undertaken a number of successful engagements for organisations that I have led or been a part of over many years..I would recommend Sheffield as being a professional organization with an excellent understanding of what is required to find the right person to fill important roles."

Jim Boult, Owner, Auckland Forklifts

For someone who has always taken the DIY approach to recruitment, letting go of such an important process wasn’t easy....I would definitely engage them again, and I am! No more DIY for me!!

Simon Challies, Executive Director, BrainTree Trust

After a rethink on the position and Louise helping us become clear on what we really wanted to achieve, we underwent a Search process which resulted in 7 candidates. The work done in the Search space gave us an excellent choice, they were all great candidates, we ended up spoilt for choice.

Richard Wilson, Group CEO, Landpower
