For reference, the conventions you are missing are:
table names are plural - use 'people' and 'positions'
'id' as primary key for all tables
'foreign_id' for foreign keys - so your 'person.position' field should
be 'people.position_id'
With these changes your models would just be:
class Person extends AppModel {
var $name = 'Person';
var $belongsTo = array(
'Position' => array('className' => 'Position')
);
}
class Position extends AppModel {
var $name = 'Position';
var $hasMany = array(
'Person' => array('className' => 'Person')
);
}
