Andrea gave a very positive presentation and had been involved in several similar appointments. Based on this, we decided to partner with Sheffield for the appointment of the new Principal/Headmaster. I would strongly support another school deciding to use Sheffield for a similar appointment.

On behalf of the Knox Trust Board, I wanted to convey our appreciation for your invaluable assistance with the recent recruitment process that led to Fionnagh’s appointment as our new CEO. From the very start, we were all incredibly impressed with Sheffield’s alignment with our core values, your willingness to listen to our requirements (and to challenge them when necessary), and the way in which you and your team went above and beyond in your efforts to ensure that the very best people were identified, shortlisted and interviewed. We are thrilled with Fionnagh’s appointment and thank you again to Sheffield for its crucial contribution to that outcome.

Andrea dealt with all candidates in a very diplomatic and professional manner and was admired by the panel for her approach. The whole process was totally professional and there was nothing that could have been done better.

For someone who has always taken the DIY approach to recruitment, letting go of such an important process wasn’t easy....I would definitely engage them again, and I am! No more DIY for me!!

Simon Challies, Executive Director, BrainTree Trust

Sheffield made the process for us recruiting this role so easy with their expert guidance and ability to find high calibre candidates. We found their professional processes particularly useful to navigate a strong candidate field and to really ensure we employed the right person for the role.
