Testimonials
They trusted the Licorne Society team with their Product hiring
We brought in Licorne Society during our technology transformation, when we needed to hire new TECH skills across several areas: Product, Delivery, QA, Engineering. Not only were they very responsive, they also put forward the candidates who best matched the brief. Of the 4 agencies we worked with, Licorne Society had the highest success rate. Well done!
This was a strategic executive committee hire, and the last 2 people we had recruited into the role hadn't worked out. We hired our new CPO, who within a few months had reorganised the team and delivered tangible results. They are exactly what our teams and the executive committee were looking for to grow the company.
We work with Licorne Society on Head of Engineering and Head of Product roles, profiles that are rare for Betclic and very hard to find given how demanding our operational teams are. The process is smooth and efficient, and the candidates they put forward are always relevant. A genuinely trusted partner, and a pleasure to work with.

Product Management recruitment: your frequently asked questions
01 How do you recruit a good Product Manager?
How do you recruit a good Product Manager?
Recruiting a high-performing Product Manager means defining the need precisely (product stage, expected seniority, Discovery and Delivery scope) before you start sourcing. Our approach combines in-depth knowledge of Product Management roles with a network of qualified candidates, so we can identify, approach and assess the best people on the market, for permanent and freelance positions alike. To understand the role in detail, see our Product Manager job profile (in French).
02 What is the difference between a Product Manager, a Product Owner and a CPO?
What is the difference between a Product Manager, a Product Owner and a CPO?
The Product Manager owns a product's vision and roadmap (the "what" and the "why"), while the Product Owner focuses more on Delivery and backlog prioritisation within an agile team. The CPO (Chief Product Officer) is the C-level executive who heads the entire Product function: vision, organisation and management of the PM, PO and Design teams. Depending on how mature your company is, we help you choose the right level of seniority. See our Product Owner job profile and our CPO profile (in French).
03 Agency or recruitment firm: who should handle your Product Management hiring?
Agency or recruitment firm: who should handle your Product Management hiring?
Many companies look for an agency or a firm specialising in Product Management to secure these strategic, hard-to-fill hires. As a recruitment agency dedicated to Product roles, Licorne Society covers every position (Product Owner, Product Manager, Head of Product, CPO, Product Designer) with proprietary sourcing technology and a genuine understanding of product challenges. That is what sets us apart from a generalist agency.
04 What is a Product Manager's salary at a startup?
What is a Product Manager's salary at a startup?
A Product Manager typically earns a gross annual base salary of €45k to €70k, rising above €80k for Senior or Lead profiles, often with equity (BSPCE) at startups and scale-ups. A Head of Product or a CPO earns more. For a complete role-by-role overview, see our startup salary study (in French).
