Crossword Genius

Greek looking for hard worker (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

grafter

'hard worker' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'greek looking' is the wordplay.
'greek' becomes 'gr'.
'looking' becomes 'after' (I've seen this in other clues**).
'gr'+'after'='GRAFTER'

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for grafter that I've seen before include "One who works hard" , "Hard worker - corrupt operator" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
