Executive Search, Assessment, Board & Leadership Advisory Services | New Zealand

Sheffield worked with us to understand what we wanted to achieve, the type of person we wanted to find, then did a great job researching the market and helping us secure the person we wanted to work with.

Peter Sewell, Director, Rubix

Sheffield has a strong reputation, they understood our needs and were the best fit for us. We valued the wide network Sheffield has which provided us with an outcome we were very happy with. The communication from Andrea was excellent and we felt we were well informed throughout the process. I would absolutely use Sheffield again and recommend them to others.

Michael Tayler, Board Chair, Waihi School

The correspondence, interview experience and application process from start to finish was absolutely brilliant. The care and way you all went about handling the process with sensitivity and as real people (not the usual impersonal forms and automated responses) made it all the more reassuring. I particularly appreciated your transparency in correspondence and in your candidate briefing pack about the stages of the process, with clear expectations from the outset. Thank you. Not just because of the outcome, this has been the most professionally managed recruitment process I've ever experienced. Please also pass on my thanks again to Andrea, I enjoyed our conversations - her warmth and energy was a joy!

Candidate

I cannot recommend the Sheffield team highly enough. What impressed me most was their thoroughness at every stage of the process. They invested significant time upfront to understand not just the requirements, but the nuances of our business, our growth objectives, and the leadership qualities that would drive success in this position. Their focus on achieving the best outcome for Southern Cross Healthcare was evident throughout. They were relentless in their commitment, proactively sourcing exceptional candidates, providing thoughtful insights, and maintaining momentum even when the search became challenging. It wasn’t just about filling a position; they were genuinely invested in finding the right fit.

I was impressed with the quality of the candidates provided and how well Sheffield understood the brief of what we were after. The candidates were well briefed prior to our interviews, and I had a number of comments from them on the candidate care they received. Sheffield far exceeded our expectations and anyone choosing to partner with them would not be disappointed.
