Client Testimonials

We partnered with Sheffield based on the quality of their presentation and advice provided within their proposal. We were impressed with the regular communication from Nicholas Buck and the guidance received throughout the process. We enjoyed working with an efficient and friendly team who were highly professional and communicated well throughout.

Dr Susan Calvert, Chief Executive Officer, Medical Sciences Secretariat

I was impressed with the quality of the candidates provided and how well Sheffield understood the brief of what we were after. The candidates were well briefed prior to our interviews, and I had a number of comments from them on the candidate care they received. Sheffield far exceeded our expectations and anyone choosing to partner with them would not be disappointed.

Cathy Hendry, Manaing Director, Strategic Pay

I cannot recommend the Sheffield team highly enough. What impressed me most was their thoroughness at every stage of the process. They invested significant time upfront to understand not just the requirements, but the nuances of our business, our growth objectives, and the leadership qualities that would drive success in this position. Their focus on achieving the best outcome for Southern Cross Healthcare was evident throughout. They were relentless in their commitment, proactively sourcing exceptional candidates, providing thoughtful insights, and maintaining momentum even when the search became challenging. It wasn’t just about filling a position; they were genuinely invested in finding the right fit.

David Simpson, Chief of Strategy & Partnerships, Southern Cross Healthcare Group

I partnered with Sheffield on this appointment because I have had a longstanding relationship with Sheffield over the last 30 years and trust the professionalism and the quality of the outcomes. The discovery process and long listing set the scene for a successful search. We only got our chosen candidate because of search and the professional approach of Sheffield. This was important as the shortlisted candidates would not have responded to advertising.

John Beveridge, Independent Chair, NZ Scaffolding Limited

We liked having a team appointed to look after us. Having two recruitment processes, the follow-on and consistency was important. Jane and Gina were a great team, keeping us updated and in touch with how the process was progressing. Jane was a very good interviewer and the calibre of the Search candidates with the second process was outstanding.

Karen Price, Chair, Aotea Electric Auckland
