In Shakespeare's play, we don't know anything about him except that he escaped Macbeth's hired murderers.

What does the conversation with the murderers reveal about Macbeth?
The conversation he had with the murderers show that he is still trying to cloak his crime under a veneer of political necessity, by suggesting that the murderers have good reason to hate Banquo and wish him dead. In reality they are hired murderers, who would kill anyone if they were paid to do it. They are quite happy to attempt to kill Fleance, who is obviously not their enemy. So, what is Macbeth on about? He is trying to justify the murder to himself, because he still has enough conscience to think that it is wrong to kill his friend just because his decendants might become kings someday.

But only Banquo ends up with his throat slit. Fleance manages to escape, and isn't tracked down. Macbeth also plans to kill Macduff and Macduff's entire family and household.

Who did Macbeth hire assassins for?
Professional hitmen. Although with the murderers he hires to kill Banquo, he goes through the rigmarole of rehearsing their grievances against Banquo, arguably this is a sham to make Macbeth feel less like the kind of scum that hires professional hitmen to kill his friend. By the time he hires murderers to kill Macduff's family, there is no more pretence.
