Jefferies Group, owned by Leucadia National Corp., hired five senior Credit Suisse Group AG bankers as it seeks to expand its investment-banking technology business from San Francisco, according to a person with knowledge of the moves.

William Brady joined the New York-based investment bank Tuesday as vice chairman of Jefferies and chairman of technology investment banking, a new role, according to the person, who asked not to be identified because the hires haven’t been made public. Brady, who was chairman of Credit Suisse’s global technology investment banking group, had been at the Swiss firm for at least 17 years.
