About Us

Tanya Litton, Owner of Green Gecko Office Solutions

I work as a Virtual Assistant from my home office and have over 10 years of administrative experience in both the private and public sector and provide exceptional administrative support to my clients.

I am enthusiastic about every project I undertake, bring a positive attitude, show extreme attention to detail and initiative. I work to the highest of standards at all times and have always maintained an excellent working relationship with clients and members of the public. I am very professional and discreet, having worked in the past in a position that deals with highly confidential material.

Having previously worked in a fast-paced environment, simultaneously on a number of different projects has taught me to deal with short timelines, a high volume of work, multiple reporting relationships, and ever-changing priorities. I am able to meet tight deadlines by using my strong organizational and time management skills to establish priorities and effectively manage my workload.
