Trustee company CCSL Ltd has hired five people to its business and opened a Sydney office.
The Melbourne-based firm has hired Mynas Leontios to head the Sydney office.
Leontios previously worked at Chifley Financial Services as a business development manager.
"We have grown the number of Sydney clients over the past year and felt we needed a presence in that city," CCSL managing director Nicholas Brookes said.
The firm has also boosted its compliance staff, hiring Julie Guittler as head of compliance and Lindsey Burber as compliance manager.
It has taken on Kristen Drake as operations manager and Kim Borwick in business support.
"Our business continues to grow and subsequently we have hired a number of people," Brookes said.
In particular, the firm was experiencing growth in the master trust area as a number of dealer groups and financial planning firms looked to offer their own master trust services, he said.
