Removed cooler position (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

office

'position' is the definition.
(I know that position can be written as office)

'removed cooler' is the wordplay.
'removed' becomes 'off' (as in an item of clothing taken off).
'cooler' becomes 'ice' (something which cools).
'off'+'ice'='OFFICE'

(Other definitions for office that I've seen before include "Place for administration business" , "Professional or clerical duties are performed here" , "Room for working" , "employment > service" , "Place for administrative business" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
