Client Testimonials

We partnered with Sheffield to recruit our new Executive Principal because they are second to none at recruitment in the independent school sector. Ian Taylor is the doyen of recruiters in this sector. His experience in the industry and his knowledge of the market and Christ’s College was invaluable during the process. Sheffield’s astute and thoughtful analysis of the candidates was extremely beneficial as the process reached the business end of short list selection and we appreciated the team approach Sheffield adopted. We are extremely grateful to Sheffield in guiding us to such a good outcome for our School.

Hugh Lindo, Board Chair, Christ's College

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

I have a long relationship with Sheffield and with Louise and Mike, which means Sheffield knows me, and our business, well. Trust them, they know the market, and they know what they’re doing

Katrina Benedetti, GM People and Culture, Ravensdown

The benefits of Sheffield went beyond the professional services and frameworks for our appointment process, it also included access to their contacts and networks to ensure we gained the best applicant pool from which to find our best candidate. It is important to work with recruiters who really know your specific sector, and how to match up people with the right organisation.

Mark Wilson, Executive Principal, Kristin School

We partnered with Sheffield based on the quality of their presentation and advice provided within their proposal. We were impressed with the regular communication from Nicholas Buck and the guidance received throughout the process. We enjoyed working with an efficient and friendly team who were highly professional and communicated well throughout.

Dr Susan Calvert, Chief Executive Officer, Medical Sciences Secretariat
