Originator (7)

Ross

I think it could be either:

founder

creator

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">originator</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(founder is a kind of originator)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for founder that I've seen before include "collapse" , "Sink, come to grief" , "Institution's former" , "One who establishes an institution" , "Creator" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard, The Guardian, The Times, the Newsday.com, The Telegraph and The Sun.
