Sean Hower (or is that Hower Sean) and others, mostly off-list, have suggested that I use "Position" instead of "Title." However, all of the responses so far have been from the US; so I'm holding off on a decision until I hear from at least one or two non-murkins.

How about "Job Title"? I do not think that "Position" is exactly unclear, but it does have funny connotations.
