Withdrawing name for a post in religious organisation? (12)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

denomination

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'religious organisation?' is the definition.
(I know that denomination is a type of religious organisation)

'withdrawing name for a post' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'name' could be 'nomi' and 'nomi' is located in the answer.
'a' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for denomination that I've seen before include "Type of currency, religion etc" , "Religious group - grade in series of designated values" , "Face value of a banknote, coin or postage stamp" , "sect" , "Value of postage stamp; branch of religion" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
