Oil supplier worked in Leeds (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

linseed

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'oil supplier' is the definition.
'linseed' can be an answer for 'oil' (I've seen this before). I am not sure about the 'supplier' bit.

'worked in leeds' is the wordplay.
'worked' is an anagram indicator.
'in'+'leeds'='inleeds'
'inleeds' with letters rearranged gives 'LINSEED'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for linseed that I've seen before include "Source of plant oil" , "Oil produced from flax" , "Flax product, a source of oil" , "Flax plant product providing oil" , "Oil applied to cricket bats" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
