Older or superior (6)

I believe the answer is:

senior

This clue is a double definition.

'older' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'superior' is the second definition.
(similar in meaning)

(Other definitions for senior that I've seen before include "Higher in rank or age" , "Older in years or higher in rank" , "High in rank" , "Elder (of two)" , "Higher in status" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Simplex) and The Irish Times.
