Raider concealed assistant (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aide

'assistant' is the definition.
(aide is a kind of assistant)

'raider concealed' is the wordplay.
'concealed' indicates a hidden word.
'AIDE' is hidden in the letters of 'raider'.

(Other definitions for aide that I've seen before include "Political assistant" , "Somebody helping" , "auxiliary" , "Leader's assistant" , "Officer's assistant" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
