"Robs" suggests a general truth or a habitual action. In your context, saying "the position ... robs him of any vestige of dignity" indicates that the position consistently takes away his dignity—it's a statement about the nature of the situation.
"Is robbing" conveys an ongoing action, indicating that the act of losing dignity is currently happening as a result of the position he’s in. Using "is robbing" would emphasize the immediacy of the loss of dignity.
In your original text, "the position ... is robbing him of any vestige of dignity" focuses on the current experience, while "the position ... robs him of any vestige of dignity" has a broader implication about the nature of that position in general.
Choosing between the two depends on whether you want to emphasize the ongoing action of losing dignity or make a more general statement about the effect of the position.
