Client Testimonials

Nick provided sound insight to enable full preparation for the ensuing interviews, as well as asking the challenging questions to ensure suitability for the role. While extremely professional, his easy-going manner and great support team behind him made the employment process an enjoyable one.

Adrian van Dyk, General Manager, Resonant

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 is known as one of New Zealand’s top level recruitment businesses and so it was a pleasure engaging with them and together creating the pathway to appoint a new CEO for a new organisation. Value was added every step of the way, from drafting documents to Sheffield’s expertise in assessing candidates in relation to the position and level of maturity of the organisation. In many ways Sheffield shared our vision. As a high-trust, high-calibre business partner I would certainly recommend Sheffield. Katy, Patrick and Shona and the organisation that sits behind them are a great team.

Alastair Bell, Chair, MIT and Unitec Council

Person Recruited: Christina Hong, Chief Executive

Sheffield Search came through the EOI process and now that our new CEO is in place I am confident we chose the right Team to work with us.

Garry Webber, Mayor, Western Bay of Plenty District Council

We felt a position at this level required expertise and skills and Sheffield could deliver on this. The process was well structured and Sheffield saved us alot of time through running the process instead of us. For a potentially difficult to fill role, we were very happy with the outcome and Will is exceptional.

Kent Krammer, General Manager NZ, Novus Glass
