'moving' is the definition.
(repositioning is a kind of moving)

'group to recruit egghead for role' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'egghead' could be 'e' (head letter of 'egg') and 'e' is located in the answer.
'role' could be 'position' (position is a kind of role) and 'position' is located in the answer.
'group' could be 'ring' (a ring is a criminal organisation) and 'ring' is present in the remaining letters.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
