Guide our group, leading that woman (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

usher

'guide' is the definition.
(ushering is a kind of guiding)

'our group leading that woman' is the wordplay.
'our group' becomes 'us'.
'leading' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'that woman' becomes 'her' (I've seen this before).
'us'+'her'='USHER'

(Other definitions for usher that I've seen before include "Escort (to a seat)" , "Court or parliamentary official" , "Doorkeeper in court of law" , "Introduce" , "falling house" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
