Place of job (8)
I believe the answer is:
position
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'place' is the first definition.
(synonyms)
'job' is the second definition.
(I know that position is a type of profession)
'of' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for position that I've seen before include "Spot" , "Stance" , "Attitude, job" , "Location or attitude" , "Place where something is" .)
