Abstract: Senior post is the emphases and key of post setting management in colleges and universities. The researches on the structure in proportion of senior posts are significant in deepening the reform on personnel system and promoting talent development in colleges and universities. This research was based on colleges and universities in Jiangxi province, analyzed the stage characteristics of position statement in Chinese universities in terms of time; compared the structure in proportion of senior post in several provinces. Then we found the prominent contradiction between supply and demand on proportion of senior posts in the universities and colleges lie in Jiangxi, which severely constrains Jiangxi on its leaping development and the construction of its high-level talent team. It was suggested to popularize the record preparation system, establish dynamic post adjustment mechanism and reasonably increase the proportion of senior posts in colleges and universities in Jiangxi province.
