Crossword Genius

One working late has arranged own light (5,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

night owl

'one working late' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'arranged own light' is the wordplay.
'arranged' indicates anagramming the letters.
'own'+'light'='ownlight'
'ownlight' is an anagram of 'NIGHT-OWL'.

'has' is the link.

(Other definitions for night owl that I've seen before include "One likes to be active late into the evening" , "Churchill was one" , "One stays up late" , "Person and creature active after dark" , "Late sleeper" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
