Tricom aims to snare 91 brokers

Domestic and Asian expansion plans will see Tricom target competitors staff as it looks to increase its footprint in the region.

Financial services group Tricom plans to recruit 91 brokers this year as part of an aggressive expansion plan in Australia and Asia.

The firm, which has already hired 10 brokers, plans to rake Australia's financial services industry in order to fill the positions.

"The company has done well over the last couple of years and wanted to invest some of that back into the group to ensure that we continued to grow," Tricom chief financial officer Werner Stals said.

"We are looking to add big numbers, about 60 more countrywide and some overseas, in total 91 by the end of the year."

 
 

Tricom has targeted 20 new brokers for Sydney, 14 for Melbourne, 10 on the Gold Coast and eight in Adelaide. The group is also targeting markets overseas.

It is due to receive its New Zealand trading licence and will add brokers to its existing Auckland and Wellington offices, as well as looking to open operations in Asia.

"We are investigating opportunities in China, Hong Kong and Singapore. If you want to cover the region you have to be there and we are looking to make this happen in the next year," Stals said.

Tricom has completely refurbished its Gold Coast and Adelaide offices, and in April moves to larger premises in Sydney.

The new office located at Governor Phillip Tower will hold almost double the group's existing broker numbers.

"Once you put the infrastructure in place, every day that you don't put a body in a seat you're losing out," Stals said.
