New role man's given as hospital worker (7)
I believe the answer is:
almoner
'hospital worker' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'new role man's given' is the wordplay.
'new' indicates anagramming the letters.
'given' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'role'+'man'='roleman'
'roleman' is an anagram of 'ALMONER'.
'as' is the link.
(Other definitions for almoner that I've seen before include "One dispensing charity" , "one gave away?" , "Former distributor of charitable aid" , "Former officer giving relief to the poor" , "Medical social worker in earlier times" .)
