Client Testimonials

A thorough recruitment process was very well planned and executed, provided a broad range of applicants for selection and a comprehensive candidate review analysis for board consideration. This was managed on a tight deadline over the Christmas/New Year period and culminated in a successful appointment. I would highly recommend Sheffield.

Kerry Wells, Chair, United Flowers Growers Limited

The process with you has been brilliant - thanks for your support throughout Kate. I really appreciated your direct style of communication and interesting and challenging questions.

Candidate Anonymous

The level of relationship management and client care exceeded my expectations. This included explanations of the process and costs, and checking in on our expectations and needs. It was a pleasure dealing with Nicholas Buck throughout the process. I would highly recommend Sheffield.

Mark Bowater, Chair, NZ Recreation Association

We settled on Sheffield unanimously based on previous experience, knowledge of the principals of the business, and its professionalism....the process was thorough, professional and actually was made quite easy for us.

Mark GIlbert, Chair, PlantTech Research Insititute

Nick provided sound insight to enable full preparation for the ensuing interviews, as well as asking the challenging questions to ensure suitability for the role. While extremely professional, his easy-going manner and great support team behind him made the employment process an enjoyable one.
