Client Testimonials

Thank you Andrea and Jane for making this whole process so incredible! I want you to know that the way you both saw the process through from start to finish made me feel valued and supported every step of the way - so I really want to thank you for that.

Anonymous Candidate

Our gratitude again to you both for all your mahi in getting us to this stage, we are thrilled with our appointment. Thank you for guiding us through these past few months, and making what is often an anxious albeit hopeful process smooth and assured.

Nalini Meyer, Chair, Te Poari Kaimatai Hinengaro o Aotearoa, NZ Psychologists Board

After going to market we chose Sheffield to lead the appointment process for our Chief Executive Officer as we felt comfortable with Louise. The whole process was seamless with a strong pool of candidates and great communication from the team at Sheffield.

Nigel Bowen, Mayor, Timaru District Council

NZR has used Sheffield for previous Board appointments and based on the positive experience and outcome this led us to partnering with them again. We found Sheffield to be professional, prompt and agile – great to deal with.

Andrea Brunner, Chief People Safety and Wellbeing Officer, New Zealand Rugby

Andrea and Sheffield were really impressive to work with. Always organised, thinking ahead and understood our needs. Resulted in a great appointment within our very tight timeframes.
