Gareth Malone's new occupation? (5,7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hotel manager

'occupation?' is the definition.

'gareth malone's new' is the wordplay.
'new' indicates an anagram.
'gareth'+'malone'='garethmalone'
'garethmalone' with letters rearranged gives 'HOTEL MANAGER'.

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
