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.

Through the apparitions of three witches, Macbeth hires murderers. The murderers whom Macbeth hires to kill the father-and-son team of Banquo and Fleance remain nameless. We don't know whether they're the same murderers who subsequently kill the family and wife of Macduff, thane of Fife.
