Client Testimonials

"Mike Stenhouse of Sheffield devoted considerable time and energy in discussion and enquiry, understanding the business and its growth and importantly interpreting the “glue” which has essentially kept the board and management close during the good times and bad. I have come out of this process confident of the appointment process and choice made, and grateful for the energy and guidance of Sheffield."

Craig Boyce, Chair, TransDiesel

"Mike Stenhouse was great to work with during the short-listing process. His service was timely, he added a valuable perspective to the interview panel, and liaised effectively with long and short-listed candidates"

David Stevens, General Manager People, Culture & Communication, PowerNet

We settled on Sheffield unanimously based on previous experience, knowledge of the principals of the business, and its professionalism....the process was thorough, professional and actually was made quite easy for us.

Mark GIlbert, Chair, PlantTech Research Insititute

We had been looking for a best-in-class search firm in New Zealand to fill our President/Managing Director global role, with the right network and credentials and reached out to several. Sheffield and specifically Ian Taylor has been the most responsive and came across as caring and very personally invested.

Luba Domanova, Senior VP HR, Precisional LLC

We partnered with Sheffield for this important role as we have had previous great experience with Ian Taylor and the team. Sheffield always provide us with great communication and regular updates. To others considering partnering with Sheffield, you will find they provide consistently good service and are very confidential/professional.

Jan Pederen, Head of People, Performance and Culture
