Overseer is pro name change (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

foreman

'overseer' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'pro name change' is the wordplay.
'pro' becomes 'for' (I've seen this before**).
'change' indicates an anagram.
'name' with letters rearranged gives 'eman'.
'for'+'eman'='FOREMAN'

'is' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for foreman that I've seen before include "Gaffer, boss" , "Supervising worker" , "Charge hand" , "Fellow in charge" , "Male supervisor" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
