Se?orita heading off to Roses working for The Examiner (8)
I believe the answer is:
assessor
'examiner' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'se?orita heading off to roses' is the wordplay.
'se?orita' becomes 'ass' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'heading' says to put letters next to each other (some letters go in front of or head others).
'off' indicates anagramming the letters.
'roses' anagrammed gives 'essor'.
'ass'+'essor'='ASSESSOR'
'working for the' is the link.
This may not be right. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for assessor that I've seen before include "Person providing marks" , "Person valuing property" , "Person who tests" , "One who estimates or fixes value" , "Examiner" .)
