About IIM

The Institute of Marine Research (IIM-CSIC) is one of the main marine research centers in the Iberian Peninsula. Looking at the Atlantic from Vigo, a city with a strong connection with the sea, the IIM-CSIC faces the challenge of increasing our knowledge about the ocean, from its physical characteristics to the food we take from it and the processes that bind the whole system together.

Research

Research is at the core of the Institute of Marine Research's work. Working along 3 Core Research Themes, which intertwine and connect to each other, the researchers and technicians at the IIM-CSIC look for answers within 9 different research lines.

Innovation

While our research provides us with new knowledge about our sea and shores, at the Institute of Marine Research we are committed to go a step further, creating new collaborations with the industry and other economic activities, be they already 'established' industries, such as fisheries or aquaculture, or 'emerging' ones, such as ocean observation.

Society

Science is not complete until it is shared with society. As a public research institution, the IIM understands that its commitment is with society, fostering a two-way relationship with its surrounding community and an open perspective on science.

Work & Study

Marine scientists, lab technicians, biologists, chemists and engineers, but also economists, lawyers or communicators (both working and in training) contribute to the interdisciplinary nature of our center. With more than 200 employees, the IIM-CSIC is a large community of people who work together for the sake of science, knowledge and sustainability.

  4. Maintenance

From fixing leaking pipes to mechanical repairs on lab equipment, our in-house Maintenance service assures our employees that technical issues can be taken care of quickly and professionally.

The service is responsible for carrying out small repairs and for the smooth operation of the center's facilities, managing and preventing any possible breakdowns that might interfere with the good operation of the Institute.

Objectives & Tasks

Among the tasks carried out by the Maintenance service, the following are worth highlighting:

  • Management of the electrical installation: SAI, installation of new connections and maintenance of the existing ones. Heating
  • Management of water pipes. Plumbing
  • Installation/maintenance of computer/telephone networks (wiring)
  • Maintenance of distilled water supply systems (filters, resin bullets, heads, Millipore equipment, pipes…)
  • Maintenance of air conditioning equipment
  • Mechanical maintenance of laboratory instrumentation and aquariums
  • Maintenance of cold storage facilities (compressors, fans, radiators, lamination valves, thermostats…)
  • Maintenance of office and laboratory furniture (locks, carpentry…)
  • Fleet of vehicles (periodic checks, repairs, Technical Inspection of Vehicles)
  • Waste management (batteries, toner, ink cartridges, fluorescent tubes, damaged material…)
