Available now and taking enquiries.
Working with the United Kingdom
One hour of timezone difference is the whole practical story. A UK team gets a full working day of overlap rather than a two-hour window at the edges, which is what makes a one-or-two-day-a-week engagement behave like a colleague rather than a consultant.
The engagements are the same four, and the work behind them — an airport operations platform, an EU public-service programme, AI products taken to production — travels across the Channel without translation.
The practical answers
- Overlap
- CET, one hour ahead of UK time
- Shape
- One to two days a week, three months minimum
- Contracting
- Remote, invoiced from the Netherlands
Engagements available in the United Kingdom
| Engagement | Owns | Commitment | Fits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fractional CTO | Technical direction | 1–2 days/week · 3-month min | Founders alone on the technical calls |
| Fractional VP of Engineering | Delivery and the team | 1–2 days/week · 3-month min | Team outgrew ad-hoc coordination |
| Advisory retainer | Judgement, not the team | A few hours a month | You have leaders, want them checked |
| Hands-on consulting | Execution | Scoped per project | One thing has to get built |
All four run at the same shape — one to two days a week, three months minimum. The detail of each, and what you are left holding afterwards, is on the advisory page.
The work behind it
Eleven years building and leading engineering teams, including KLM’s airport operations platform and the Single Digital Gateway programme used by every Dutch municipality, province and water authority. Deciding between the first two engagements is its own question — fractional CTO versus a full-time VP of Engineering works through it.
Does Dario Mory take fractional CTO work with UK companies?
Yes. UK clients are part of the existing mix, worked remotely from the Netherlands with an hour of timezone difference and a full day of overlap.
How does a remote fractional CTO work with a UK team?
One to two days a week, three months minimum, inside the team’s own tools rather than alongside them — in the codebase, in the reviews, and in the hiring loops for the senior roles.
