Client Testimonials

In a Covid-19 year the job market has been tough for candidates and recruitment companies alike, however my interaction with Louise, as a candidate, was a standout amongst the crowd. I found Louise pro-active and responsive to my enquiry, and Louise is backed by a very organised and professional team who enabled our interaction to be seamless and successful.

Ian and the team clearly had extensive networks in the education sector which meant we were presented with candidates of exceptional quality and appropriate characteristics. They understood our requirements and led us through a recruitment exercise which was comprehensive, holistic and timely.

Sharon Wards, Chair, Lindisfarne College Council

Sheffield continues to be the benchmark in executive recruitment...they have done an outstanding job in finding the right candidates and making the recruitment process streamlined, efficient and very easy for me.

Tony Whale, General Manager, Central Heating NZ

Mike and Louise, and their team at Sheffield, made the process of finding the right applicant for our new tier two Chief Operating Officer role feel like a ‘walk in the park’.

Joanna Cranness, People, Safety and Wellbeing Manager, Tasman District Council

Sheffield's previous reputation led me to using them again. The whole process flowed well from the initial brief and I would highly recommend Sheffield, and Mike Stenhouse or Jane Pollitt to anyone without hesitation.

Colin Weatherall, Acting Chair, Central South Island Fish and Game
