Client Testimonials

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 benefits of Sheffield went beyond the professional services and frameworks for our appointment process, it also included access to their contacts and networks to ensure we gained the best applicant pool from which to find our best candidate. It is important to work with recruiters who really know your specific sector, and how to match up people with the right organisation.

Mark Wilson, Executive Principal, Kristin School

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

Ian Taylor led the team responsible for our board appointments. Ian is an outstanding leader and his fingerprints are embedded in our successful search. What stood out for me was Sheffield’s ability to gain a close understanding of our business, quickly translate that into rigorous and targeted research and search activity whilst communicating seamlessly and constructively throughout the entire process.

Mark Newman, former Board Member, MOVe Logistics

Sheffield is a trusted partner for recruitment. Sheffield provides tailored executive recruitment services, including extensive candidate research and utilising networks across New Zealand. Sheffield invest time to understand the needs of the organisation and the requirements of the role to ensure a successful appointment. The advice and guidance provided throughout the recruitment process was outstanding, coupled with exceptional candidate care. The transparent process and effective communication were ten out of ten. Thanks again for your amazing mahi.

Katie Church, Director People and Capability, Queenstown Lakes District Council
