in addition to his duties
A "position" or a "post" is only a name in English, each with a given set of duties, and this guy has just acquired additional duties on top of those as the Deputy Minister that he already has. If we use "position" then it would have to be "in addition to his position AS the Deputy Minister for Administrative Affairs".
