Older in years (6)

I believe the answer is:

senior

(Other definitions for senior that I've seen before include "Older or higher in standing" , "More advanced in years or authority" , "Higher in rank or age" , "Elder person - higher in rank" , "Higher in rank or authority" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
