Client Testimonials

We chose Sheffield for their expertise, strong support structures, and clear communication—qualities that were evident throughout the entire process. Ian Taylor and his team demonstrated a clear understanding of integrated schools and their special character focus, managing the candidates with confidence and professionalism.

Gill Chappell, Chairperson, Baradene College of the Sacred Heart

Sheffield have become our agency of choice when recruiting for senior leadership roles. Katy, Nick and the team invest upfront in understanding our brief and importantly they have developed an indepth understanding of our business.

David Lanham, Chief Executive, Palmerston North Airport Limited

Louise was very responsive and read the nuances of the role extremely well, providing a timely, quality service. We couldn’t fault the process and would highly recommend Sheffield to other organisations.

Lesley Fleming, Acting GM People and Safety, Lyttelton Port Company

I am very aware of how good the Sheffield Search facility is, and at this level, Search is a very important part of the process. There was also a value-add through Mike’s perceptibility – he is very astute when it comes to reading candidates

Jane Huria, Board Chair, UniMed

Having placed our previous GM, Sheffield was familiar with our organisation’s requirements. This resulted in a smooth process that was professionally and successfully managed. We were happy with the outcome, and successfully appointed our new General Manager.

David Barker, Chair, Rural Livestock
