Help thinking of a word

183 · 2015-06-02 15:33:21

I'm trying to think of a word that means a position someone has been given in a company which is paid but they arent expected to do any work and have no responsibility.. Usually as a reward for doing other unpaid work say for example in sport.. I think the word begins with S. Hope that didnt sound confusing Thanks
