English banker getting axed — or estate manager? (8)
I believe the answer is:
executor
'estate manager?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'english banker getting axed or' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'english' could be 'e' (abbreviation as in OED) and 'e' is found within the answer.
'or' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for executor that I've seen before include "One carries out the terms of a will" , "Administrator" , "Person legally appointed to administer will" , "Will enactor" , "One is appointed to carry out the terms of a will" .)
