# Roles & permissions

> Control what each teammate can see and do in Overflow.

Overflow uses role-based access control so you can give teammates exactly the access they need — and nothing more.

## Built-in roles

| Role        | Typical user                  | Access                                                           |
| ----------- | ----------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Owner       | Founder or executive director | Full access, including billing and destructive actions           |
| Admin       | Operations lead               | Full access except billing and organization deletion             |
| Finance     | Bookkeeper, treasurer         | Contributions, reconciliation, payouts, reporting, tax documents |
| Development | Development staff             | Donors, households, giving links, campaigns                      |
| Read-only   | Auditors, volunteers          | View-only access to contributions and reports                    |

## Assign a role

1. Open **Settings → Team**.
2. Click a teammate's name.
3. Select a role from the dropdown and save.

Changes take effect the next time the teammate loads the dashboard.

## Custom roles

Growth and Enterprise plans support custom roles with granular permissions. Contact your account manager to enable them.
