Quirrell's job is "DADA Professor."  Snape has wanted the job "DADA Professor" for years. Written out of context as it is here, I can see where that line can be taken the wrong way, but somehow I either don't recall the idea being expressed in those particular words, or at least not delivered in such a way as to imply the job had been Quirrell's for all the time that Snape wanted it.
