Helpers I’d organised for church office (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eldership

'church office' is the definition.

'helpers i'd organised' is the wordplay.
'organised' indicates anagramming the letters.
'helpers'+'id'='helpersid'
'helpersid' anagrammed gives 'ELDERSHIP'.

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for eldership that I've seen before include "churchman" , "held by presbyter" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
