"Part to play in a project or organization" answer
The answer for Tuesday's puzzle is:
ROLE
The rest of the ladder at the top of the page stays hidden until you tap a rung, so you can check this word without giving away the others.
Why ROLE fits
If you've already solved HOLE, change its first letter from H to R. The top word, RULE, unlocks once the middle rungs are in order, and it differs from ROLE only in the second letter, U instead of O.
