A nuggety right-back, Hunt spent almost his entire playing career with Hellenic. However, his retirement came soon because of an achilles tendon injury and went straight into coaching.

Hunt's greatest success came at SuperSport United, where he won three consecutive PSL championships from 2007-08 to 2009-10

He previously managed Seven Stars, Hellenic FC, Black Leopards and Moroka Swallows.^[3]
