Employer (4)

Ross

I think it could be either:

boss

user

'employer' is the definition.
(someone who employs or uses something)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for user that I've seen before include "Someone who exploits another" , "Right long-established" , "Person employing something" , "Ruse (anag.)" , "junkie" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, the Penny Press, The Daily Mail, the King Feature Syndicate, The New York Times, The Telegraph, the Evening Standard, The Mirror and the Sydney Morning Herald.
