Client Testimonials

Sheffield Search came through the EOI process and now that our new CEO is in place I am confident we chose the right Team to work with us.

Garry Webber, Mayor, Western Bay of Plenty District Council

The particular points of difference in working with Sheffield were their ability to quickly and accurately identify our needs, their general responsiveness and excellent in-house team who could provide specific insight and skills. Their sensitivity at a difficult time for the school, and addressing this head-on in terms of branding and appropriate messaging in all outward-facing material and response to candidate queries was outstanding. I would recommend Sheffield without question in supporting schools in the recruitment of senior roles.

Johanna Clark, Human Resources Manager, Dilworth Trust Board

As TradeZones Independent Director, I steered the Board towards appointing Sheffield based on other and recent excellent experiences with Ian Taylor and his team. Sheffield’s progress with the task to find a new General Manager was excellent. All round, I think the Board of TradeZone and I are well pleased with the approach, the cadence of the task, and the outcome, so have no hesitation in recommending Sheffield Search.

Mark Gilbert, Independent Director, TradeZone

From an applicant’s perspective, Andrea was very good at explaining the process and what was expected of me at each stage. Andrea’s feedback was also very beneficial and made me feel very comfortable, with no additional stress on the day or leading up to interviews.

Tim Grocott, Principal, Shirley Boys High School

Sheffield is a trusted partner for recruitment. Sheffield provides tailored executive recruitment services, including extensive candidate research and utilising networks across New Zealand. Sheffield invest time to understand the needs of the organisation and the requirements of the role to ensure a successful appointment. The advice and guidance provided throughout the recruitment process was outstanding, coupled with exceptional candidate care. The transparent process and effective communication were ten out of ten. Thanks again for your amazing mahi.

Katie Church, Director People and Capability, Queenstown Lakes District Council
