His position would be Village Head, or Sato-Osa in Japanese. Given how the Sound Village worked in the past, he actually had the influence to basically run a country not to mention his various hideouts across the continent, so depending on its current status, he might even qualify as some form of Feudal Lord, but given he tends to stick to his lab and is under surveillance by Konoha, that's probably not the case.

The current status of Otogakure is actually something that really interests me and I would love to know more about its structure and personnel.
