Hire a product manager in Greece and Cyprus

Someone who replaces the loudest voice in the room with evidence: what users need, what the business earns from it, and what ships next.

Plenty of companies in Greece and Cyprus build digital products without anyone doing product management, so the roadmap follows the founder's latest conversation or the biggest customer's newest demand. A product manager turns those requests into decisions, tested with users and ordered by value. Where the role usually starts:

  • A scale-up outgrowing founder-led decisions about what to build next
  • A first digital product team inside a corporate, with no product habits to inherit
  • A PE portfolio company whose new owners want product choices made on evidence
  • A roadmap nobody can defend, because every item came from whoever asked last

The product managers on Hellenic Talent are elite professionals from the product organisations of scale-ups and international technology companies, and from corporates that build digital products seriously.

What does a product manager actually do?

  • Run discovery with real users instead of the anecdotes that reach the office
  • Order the roadmap by value, and defend that order when it is challenged
  • Set a working rhythm with engineers and designers: clear priorities and honest trade-offs
  • Shape pricing and packaging with the commercial team, from what users actually value
  • Say no to features with a reason stakeholders can repeat
  • Measure what shipped work changed, and feed the answer into the next decision

How to choose the right product manager

What to test in the first conversation, whoever you end up hiring.

  1. Moved a product metric

    Names a metric a release of theirs moved, such as activation or retention, and how they knew it was the release.

  2. Dropped a feature on evidence

    Describes a feature they dropped after user interviews, and what the users said that changed the decision.

  3. Reordered a founder's roadmap

    Has replaced a roadmap built on requests with one ordered by evidence, and kept the founder on side.
