Manager of the year Eva Olid says leading Hearts to their first SWPL title would be the "dream" finish to her time at the club.
Olid claimed the PFA prize on Sunday night, with her side currently four points clear at the summit and just three games remaining.
Speaking after picking up the award, the Spaniard said: "It feels amazing. I didn't expect it. When they said my name, I was full of emotion.
"I was confident this season because we kept the same team as last season. When you keep working with the same group, it's important because they know you. They knew what I needed and what I wanted. They have been amazing.
"[Winning the league would be] a dream. It would be the best way to finish this project we started five years ago, when the team was amateur, and end by giving the title to the club. It would be the best thing ever."
Meanwhile, Glasgow City forward Nicole Kozlova won SWPL player of the year, with Rangers midfielder May Cruft claiming young player of the year.
