CIM prioritizes the attraction and retention of research talent through a strategy that supports the professional development of the Center’s scientific and technical staff, providing continuous and specialized training tailored to current needs and demands. This helps maintain and enhance our research capacity, knowledge transfer, and societal impact.
CIM’s talent management is based on the HR Excellence in Research Award and the HRS4R Excellence Seal obtained by the UVigo, representing our commitment to continuous improvement by aligning our human resources strategies and policies with the principles of the European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers (C&C).
CIM follows two main pathways to attract and retain talent: through internal resources and through competitive external national calls such as R&C and JdC, or European programs like ERC and MSCA, combined with its own calls to recruit external researchers with international recognition.
At CIM, talent is our most valuable asset.
