The word “post” typically refers to an available job position that has not yet been filled. It is called “post” since they are often uploaded online or posted for applicants to see.
The word “position” can be used to describe the type of job, regardless of whether it is filled or not. For example: My “position” at the company is the General Manager. This word can be used to describe jobs that are already taken or are in need of an employee.
In more simple terms:
Post = job listing
Position = a person’s current or future role
