Crossword Genius

Story worker's presented for person handling finances (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

accountant

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

'person handling finances' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'story worker's presented' is the wordplay.
'story' becomes 'account' (synonyms).
'worker' becomes 'ant' (worker is a type of ant).
'presented' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'account'+'ant'='ACCOUNTANT'

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for accountant that I've seen before include "Financial expert" , "He scores" , "One keeping track of money" , "One dealing with finances" , "auditor" .)
