person in or living in a place

A person who is in or lives in a room, building, seat, car, or other space at that time.

استعمال کا انداز: the occupant of [a place/seat/vehicle]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use "owner" when they mean "occupant". An owner may not live in or use the place, but an occupant is the person who is actually there. Also, learners may confuse "occupant" with "occupation" (job); these words are not related in meaning.

person holding a job or office

A person who has a job, role, or office at this time, often until another person takes it.

استعمال کا انداز: the occupant of [a position/office]
عام غلطی:
Learners may think "occupant" only refers to someone in a physical space and not realize it can also mean someone who holds a position or office. They may also confuse this use with "employee"; however, an occupant of a position may be elected or appointed, not just hired as staff.

incumbent (More formal and often used in politics to mean the current holder of an office.) | holder (General word for someone who has a position or title; less specific about the idea of temporary occupation.) | officeholder (Specifically refers to someone who holds an official or public office.)
متضاد الفاظ
successor (A person who takes over a job or office after the current occupant leaves.) | predecessor (The former holder of a position, contrasted with the current occupant.)
