Degree 53 strengthens team with two directors and 12 new hires
Degree 53, specialists in UX, design and software development, are excited to announce that they have promoted two existing team members, Bav Patel and Peter Stringer, to directors. The company has also made 12 new hires over the last three months, all whilst working remotely. This restructure adds more strength and extra support to the wider team.
Bav Patel has taken on the role of Technical Director – Web and Infrastructure, having been with the company for over six years and playing a key role in its web development services. With over 13 years’ experience, Bav will be driving the web and infrastructure offering for the business.
Peter Stringer has been promoted to Technical Director – Mobile. He joined the business when the team at Degree 53 were still part of the Betfred mobile division in 2012. Peter brings a wealth of app development experience across multiple platforms and will be leading the company’s mobile services.
In addition, Degree 53 has brought in new recruits to increase capacity across the board. They include Web and App Developers, Quality Assurance, Project Managers, UX Designer and a Business Analyst. All new starters have a great background in working with digital products and bring experience from a number of industries, whether from an agency or in-house.
This recruitment drive came from the need to provide additional support to client projects and expand the company’s capacity despite the lockdown. Degree 53 have been continuously working on projects throughout the recent months thanks to existing clients increasing their demand for digital services and some exciting new business wins.
Richard Wagstaff, Managing Director at Degree 53 comments: “I’m delighted to recognise the great work both Bav and Peter have been doing. Their promotions are a testament to their expertise in their respective fields and delivering successful projects for our clients. I also want to welcome our new team members and look forward to meeting them face-to-face in the coming weeks. It’s been a tough few months for many businesses, and I’m glad we’ve been able to grow our team during this period whilst retaining all our employees.”
“As we’re cementing our reputation in a number of industries, such as online gambling, lottery, finance and wellbeing, all of our new hires are a fantastic addition to the business. They have already shown great determination to learn and get stuck into projects working from home. These changes will no doubt strengthen our delivery capability and enhance our offering too.”

Here are this weeks latest slots releases compiled by European Gaming
Spinomenal has welcomed another title into its Wildlife Series, Majestic Bison.

PG Soft, a world-class digital mobile games company, is celebrating the magic of the Rio de Janeiro Carnival with the release of its new slot, Rio Fantasia. A young dancer named Isabella is the star of the show as players join in the rhythm and passion of one of the world’s most spectacular parties. Rio Fantasia is a 3-reel, 3-row video slot featuring Stacked Wild symbols, multipliers, and respin until win.
Hölle Games has released Jumpin’ Jacks, a new Classic title featuring a special Duplicating Wilds mechanic. This 5×3, 15 payline slot has a theme of Halloween harvest, with scarecrows, pumpkins, corn, crows and a creepy midnight sky completing the picture. The atmosphere is there to match, with a cosy yet somewhat spooky soundtrack.
Belatra Games, the specialist online slots developer, has served up Cafe Pin-Up, a slot that whisks players away to a vibrant 1950s diner, where retro glamour meets thrilling gameplay. Players take a seat inside a charming cafe, where pin-up girls are on hand to deliver delicious dishes in a raucous atmosphere created by a jukebox playing toe-tapping tunes. The game is presented in a 5×4 grid with 20 paylines with the Pin-Up Girl Wild symbol playing the key role.
New from Peter & Sons comes Muddy Waters, a game that will send your Geiger counter up to 11. This high-volatility and highly radioactive slot comes packed with symbol multipliers, power-ups and a unique fishing mechanic. Muddy Waters riffs on the popular fishing-slot genre, but since this is the weird and wonderful world of Peter & Sons, it gets flipped on its head, because this game is about reeling in radioactive fish.
Relax Gaming, the iGaming aggregator and provider of unique content, is getting players into the festive spirit with its latest release, Money Sleigh, a Christmas-themed slot guaranteed to deliver stocking-filled fun and the chance to unwrap big wins.
