i want to change the selection of the month column according to the current month ..so , i have column for months (Sep-2022,Oct-2022,.....Jul-2023) , i used countifs as shown above and i tried to change month column dynamically by using Hlookup formula inside countifs formula , and it worked ,but when the Hlookup brings column name it keeps put hidden quotes ("" "") at first and end of column name, if U use hlookup separately it will bring correct column name but when i put it inside countifs it brings column name as "StaffTBL[Dec-2022]"

Does this do what you want?
=COUNTIFS(StaffTBL[Position],"Head Teacher",StaffTBL[Gender],"MALE",INDIRECT("StaffTBL["&TEXT(TODAY(),"mmm-yyyy")&"]"),"Active")
