Client Testimonials

I would recommend partnering with Sheffield. They make the end-to-end process so easy and make sure the candidates are updated on progress all the time. At this challenging time of getting great talent, Sheffield makes sure the processes are quick and easy - both for me as the hiring manager and the candidates.

Anton Youngman, General Manager Sector Insights, Ministry of Justice

The particular points of difference in working with Sheffield were their ability to quickly and accurately identify our needs, their general responsiveness and excellent in-house team who could provide specific insight and skills. Their sensitivity at a difficult time for the school, and addressing this head-on in terms of branding and appropriate messaging in all outward-facing material and response to candidate queries was outstanding. I would recommend Sheffield without question in supporting schools in the recruitment of senior roles.

Johanna Clark, Human Resources Manager, Dilworth Trust Board

It’s been a pleasure to partner with Sheffield over the years as we’ve collaborated to build new leadership development programmes and a pipeline of confident, capable leaders able to deliver on our organisational strategy and values. The team has a warm, collegial style and an ability to quickly get to the heart of our needs and tailor their approach accordingly.

Theren Naidoo, Talent and Learning Partner, Livestock Improvement Corporation

"WESCT (Waitomo Energy Services Customer Trust) have used Sheffield for our last two director recruitment processes. Mike and Gina made the process to appoint a new Director significantly easier and in both cases we have had excellent candidates to meet and select from."

Peter Keeling, ex- Chair, Waitomo Energy Services Customer Trust

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
