REC Chief Executive Kevin Green said: "These awards are open to everyone within the IRP and REC and are designed to bring together the industry and celebrate those people and companies who demonstrate excellence and really make a difference to their clients and candidates on a daily basis.

"It does not matter if nominees have just joined the industry or have been working within it for 20 years; everyone has a great chance to show what positive role models they are."

The award categories this year are:
* Best Newcomer of the Year;
* Permanent Consultant of the Year;
* Temporary Consultant of the Year;
* Business Manager of the Year;
* Business Leader of the Year;
* The Eileen Simpson Award for Outstanding Contribution;

The awards are open to all IRP members and the companies for whom they work. Closing date for entries will now be Wednesday, July 7 with the shortlist announced on Friday July 23.

All the shortlisted entries will be invited to attend the awards dinner taking place at The Brewery, Chiswell Street, London EC1, on Wednesday October 20.
