About
Experienced hands on your building.
Silver Fox Group is led by Jean Castene, a facilities and operations leader with more than ten years of experience keeping occupied buildings safe, working, and ready. He has managed day-to-day operations in places where the building can't simply close for repairs, from church and school campuses to a 24/7 hospital.
Jean works the way a good facilities director should: find the real problem, bring in the right trade, stay on the job until it's finished, and keep leadership informed along the way. A background in logistics management means people, parts, schedules, and vendors are coordinated as carefully as the equipment itself.
