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

'in the best position' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'not to struggle to go to work' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
an anagram of 'not' is 'ont' which is within the answer.
'work' could be 'op' (abbreviation for opus) and 'op' is found within the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for on top that I've seen before include "Leading" , "Winning" , "In a dominant position" , "At the summit or in superior position" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
