Tenure (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

lease

stint

(Other definitions for stint that I've seen before include "one's allotted task" , "Be niggardly, or fixed amount of work" , "Brief spell" , "Spot of work" , "Restrict to small allowance, be niggardly" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday and the Evening Standard.
