Client Testimonials

Andrea gave a very positive presentation and had been involved in several similar appointments. Based on this, we decided to partner with Sheffield for the appointment of the new Principal/Headmaster. I would strongly support another school deciding to use Sheffield for a similar appointment.

Tony Deavoll, Chair, Shirley Boys' High School

"Sheffield have undertaken a number of successful engagements for organisations that I have led or been a part of over many years..I would recommend Sheffield as being a professional organization with an excellent understanding of what is required to find the right person to fill important roles."

Jim Boult, Owner, Auckland Forklifts

For this role we needed the market knowledge we knew Sheffield had. The Search process brought a great calibre of candidates. Sheffield’s knowledge of the applicants, overall experience in the market and handling of the process was a huge benefit for us. We had a tricky timeframe with Christmas looming but Louise was able to deliver within the timeframes. We are very happy with the outcome and would definitely recommend Sheffield to others.

Hamish Dobbie, Chief Executive Officer, Hurunui District Council

"We could not have managed the process without Sheffield - their advertising and recruitment strategy exceeded expectations. If you are looking for executive level appointments I highly recommend Sheffield and Katy in particular."

John Gommans, Chair, Stroke Foundation NZ

We were really, really happy with the outcome of the recruitment process and would have no hesitation in recommending Sheffield to anyone. Embrace their expertise and knowledge - don’t try and do it yourself.

Stu Myles, Chair, Nova Trust
