I believe the answer is:

cadre

(Other definitions for cadre that I've seen before include "Group of key personnel" , "Raced (anag) -- small inner group of activists" , "Tight-knit military unit" , "Nucleus of key personnel" , "Raced around the framework of a military unit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
