# Custom Roles

If you need to expand beyond the [Default Roles](/kb/default-roles) to better fit your organization, you can easily define your own custom roles within LILT. By default, adding and editing custom roles is only available to the administrator role.

To get started, navigate to the `Manage > Users`.

Select the `Roles` tab, which will display all the default roles and custom roles of the organization.

To add a new role, clicking the `New role` button in the upper-left. This opens a pop-up where you can set the name for the custom role, add a description, and toggle on each permission you want the role to have.

If a user has been assigned the "Linguist" role type, they will not have the ability to create verified or instant translation jobs.

The permissions available to be toggled shown below for reference. To compare against what permissions the default roles have, see the [Default Roles](/kb/default-roles) article.

**User visibility** is a security feature that can anonymize translator information of TM entries displayed in [LILT Translate](/kb/introduction-to-lilt-translate). This helps keep sensitive information away from roles that don’t need it to perform their duties.

* If a role has the `User visibility` option **turned on**, users with that role **can** see translator information for TM entries. The default roles “Administrator” and “Manager” have this setting.
* If a role has the `User visibility` option **turned off**, users with that role **cannot** see translator information for TM entries. The translator information will instead be filled with asterisks. The default roles “Translator” and “Reviewer” have this setting.
