The entry deadline for the 2018 cHeRries Awards has been pushed back a few days to next Wednesday, giving firms and human resources (HR) professionals a little extra time to pitch contenders for the highly-prized blossoming award.

Now in their 11th year and run by the Press and Journal, the prestigious cHeRries Awards celebrate the cream of HR across the north-east.

Whoever wins the blossoming honour will have demonstrated a genuine commitment to a career in HR management and an understanding of how HR professionals contribute to an organisation.

The category is sponsored by Robert Gordon University, which is also title sponsor for the whole event.

CHeRies award ceremonies are attended by more than 450 people and widely seen as the perfect platform for showcasing some of the best HR professionals and practices in Scotland.

Three new categories have been added this year: superb services to the industry, terrific team of the year and exceptional employee engagement. Other gongs will celebrate an excellent manager, extraordinary initiative, fantastic adviser, outstanding director, and tremendous learning and development.

The awards are backed by high-profile firms committed to recognising the importance of people to the success of businesses. To enter the 2018 event, visit www.cherriesawards.co.uk, or contact Jacqui Gray on jagray@dctmedia.co.uk or 01382 575564.
