Client Testimonials

We have used Sheffield previously and they have done a wonderful job for us. Kate quickly grasped what we were looking for and gave us confidence she understood our business and needs. Kate gave sound, practical advice around the placement and timing for advertising, as well as excellent support and updates throughout the process. We were really happy with the outcome and Sheffield South Island did a fantastic job.

Jo Yusaf, Manager, People, Brand and Administration, Corcoran French

Person Recruited: Stephen McCormick, Manager Finance and Business Services

"WESCT (Waitomo Energy Services Customer Trust) have used Sheffield for our last two director recruitment processes. Mike and Gina made the process to appoint a new Director significantly easier and in both cases we have had excellent candidates to meet and select from."

Peter Keeling, ex- Chair, Waitomo Energy Services Customer Trust

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

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

I wish to applaud Sheffield for their professional, considerate and thorough approach to recruitment. Sheffield's approach of personal contact, detailed candidate assessment and rigorous evaluation provided me with the assurance I was seeking. It was a pleasure to work with Louise Green and her team

Dave Ward, Group Manager - 3 Waters, Dunedin City Council
