Spot job (8)
I believe the answer is:
position
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'spot' is the first definition.
(I know that spot can be written as position)
'job' is the second definition.
(I know that position is a type of job)
(Other definitions for position that I've seen before include "Place or perspective" , "Attitude, job" , "Job; point of view" , "status" , "Put" .)
