'appointment' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I can't see?

'she's succeeded in getting an' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'an' could be 'i' (Roman numeral for one) and 'i' is present in the answer.
'she' could be 'ree' and 'ree' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
