Of a person who is older or higher in rank (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

senior

(Other definitions for senior that I've seen before include "Higher in rank or authority" , "Elder (of two)" , "Superior - elder" , "Older in years or higher in rank" , "Denoting older people" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
