About us

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.

I knew of Sheffield’s reputation in the Education sector and had heard great things. Everything worked well throughout this assignment and the communications were top notch. The reach you were able to achieve to candidates was exceptional and we never would have been able to get to those candidates, this was a huge advantage.

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.

After going to market we selected Sheffield from previous experience and with the scale of this role, Louise’s market knowledge helped us make the decision. Managing different timezones, the festive season and that the interview team were based in Denmark elongated the process, however this was well managed by Louise. Regular updates from Louise and her understanding of what they were looking for impacted the great quality of candidates brought to the table. It was a seamless process with an excellent result.

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.
