Interesting question. If you wanted to give the top job to the person
who has been most successful in fighting Voldemort, and that doesn't
sound like a bad idea to me, then there is only one man who should be
boss, Harry Potter. Yes, 16 is a little young for a General but it's
not unprecedented, Alexander the Great was leading men into battle at
that age and doing it brilliantly. Nobody else has had anywhere near
the success that Harry had against Voldemort.

I think something like that is actually going to happen because there
will be a vacancy, Dumbledore is going to get killed in the next book.
However Harry may have to wait until he reaches the advanced age of 17
before he is made Commander In Chief.
