Client Testimonials

We have enjoyed our experience....everyone was very approachable, efficient with their work and time and always available. We would happily use Sheffield again".

Jan Early, Barrhill Chertsey Irrigation, Chair

The added value to the process was high-level, trustworthy and had integrity - Sheffield gave us the tools to make our decision with confidence. I always felt supported by Sheffield and always knew Mike was at the end of the phone to ask any questions if I needed to.

Marie Black, Mayor, Hurunui District Council

After a rethink on the position and Louise helping us become clear on what we really wanted to achieve, we underwent a Search process which resulted in 7 candidates. The work done in the Search space gave us an excellent choice, they were all great candidates, we ended up spoilt for choice.

Richard Wilson, Group CEO, Landpower

The Sheffield team offered insights which challenged some of our views yet provided us with rational and clear options for consideration. We were delighted with the final outcome and are very grateful to Ian and the team for their work.

Sharon Wards, Chair, Lindisfarne College Council

This is the fourth time we have used Sheffield to fill a senior management position in one of our businesses. The Sheffield team are professional, knowledgeable and passionate to find the right fit for our business.

Paul Croft, CEO, Infinity Investment Group
