poses

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

'is in the position' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'organise a posse' is the wordplay.
'organise' indicates anagramming the letters.
'posse' is an anagram of 'POSES'.

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for poses that I've seen before include "presents" , "Sits (for artists)" , "Models" , "Sits for artist" , "Strikes attidude for artist" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
