Avery would join the firm from Bridges Financial Services, where he was head of stockbroking, and, in his new role, would be head of equity solutions.
Martin would join after 14 years at State Street and more than 23 years in the industry, and would take on the role of equity finance trader.
McGregor had 14 years’ experience in sales and team leadership, most recently with AstraZeneca, and would become head of sales and business development.
Eckles would join the firm following roles at Mercer, ANZ and boutique practices, and would take charge of the portfolio review function,
Managing director, David Ferrall, said being an “alternative” to traditional firms in a time when those firms are under a lot of pressure has worked well for FinClear in terms of attracting talent.
