Melina's new servant (6)

I believe the answer is:

menial

'servant' is the definition.
(I know that menial is a type of servant)

'melina's new' is the wordplay.
'new' is an anagram indicator.
'melina' anagrammed gives 'MENIAL'.

(Other definitions for menial that I've seen before include "A drudge" , "(Of job) low in prestige" , "Unskilled, degrading" , "Domestic servant" , "(Of work) unskilled" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
