Ask to be considered for the role, and also start looking for another job

get a new job
Fair enough
They don't value you or want you to move up (terminal position). Start job hunting asap if you have different expectations.

What is average YOE for sr counsel role? At my f500 it is usually 8 years. So maybe you are still too junior for it despite what YOE range they put in posting. Still hard not to feel slighted and would suggest you ask to be considered, be prepared for no and start looking for another job as this new role would seem to limit your promotion prospects.
