Lodewijk, See the following category on the WMF site: http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Category:Job_Descriptions. This contains descriptions of all of the positions hired for since 2007-ish, though it is definitely not necessarily reflective of the role that these positions have in the organizational structure today.
I would agree that a refreshed organizational chart should be provided to the community one of these days by the WMF to reflect the structural changes under the new ED.
