# Organization Roles on Fundwork | Control Team Permissions

> Understand how organization roles on Fundwork control what each team member can do — from posting opportunities to managing applicants.

Organization roles let you control exactly what each team member can do within your Fundwork organization. Rather than giving everyone equal access, roles allow you to delegate specific responsibilities — like posting opportunities or approving payments — to the right people on your team.

## Why Roles Matter

As your organization grows, different team members take on different responsibilities. A role system ensures that the right people have the right level of access, protecting your organization from accidental changes and keeping your workflow structured.

## How Roles Are Assigned

When you [add a team member](/organizations/team-members) to your organization, you assign them a role as part of the invitation flow. You can update a member's role at any time from your organization's **Team Members** settings.

<Tip>
  Assign roles based on each team member's actual responsibilities. Limiting elevated permissions to the people who genuinely need them keeps your organization's profile and funds more secure.
