Assistant Controller

Hunt Club is a retained search firm working with Surface Preparation Technologies (SPT), a leading provider of rumble strips and critical roadway safety services, operating across all 48 contiguous states. Founded in 1988 and headquartered in New Kingstown, Pennsylvania, SPT serves state transportation departments, government agencies, and general contractors — delivering essential infrastructure services that keep roads safer for everyone.

In January 2026, SPT was acquired by Frontline Road Safety, a Bain Capital portfolio company, marking an exciting new chapter of growth and investment for the business. With a strong operational foundation and PE backing behind them, SPT is scaling quickly and building out the infrastructure — including the finance function — to support that trajectory.

\n

Surface Preparation Technologies is now a part of Frontline Road Safety Group, a $1.2B+ North American leader in road, highway, and airport safety services and materials. Headquartered in Denver, Frontline operates 85+ locations with more than 3,000 employees, forming the largest pavement marking platform in North America and supporting critical safety infrastructure for airports, state DOTs, municipalities, and private sector customers.

Frontline is backed by Bain Capital, one of the world’s leading private investment firms with over four decades of experience scaling market-leading industrial, services, and infrastructure businesses. Bain Capital’s partnership provides Frontline and its operating companies with the strategic support, operational expertise, and investment capital needed to accelerate growth, strengthen market leadership, and continue expanding across North America.
