'soon' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'there's a vacancy a girl is sent round' is the wordplay.
'there's a vacancy' becomes 'o' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'a girl' becomes 'Ann' (woman's name).
'is sent round' indicates putting letters inside.
'o' inserted inside 'ann' is 'ANON'.

'as' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
