@jeremyyeo should we also add 'billing admin' per this doc.

I've asked aaron here: https://dbtlabs.atlassian.net/browse/ENTERPRISE-1212

- **IT** — Can manage users, groups, and licenses, among other permissions. IT users can receive job notifications but not configure them. Available on Enterprise and Team plans only. In Enterprise plans, the IT license type grants access equivalent to the ['Security admin' and 'Billing admin' roles](/docs/cloud/manage-access/enterprise-permissions#account-permissions-for-account-roles).


The user's assigned license determines the specific capabilities they can access in dbt Cloud.

:::info Licenses vs Permission Sets

The type of [license](https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/cloud/manage-access/seats-and-users) that a user has takes
precedence over the exact permission set that the user has. This means that if a user has a "Read-Only" license
but is placed in a dbt Cloud group with "Account Admin" permissions - that user would still not be able to take
any administrative actions on the account as the license would restrict them from doing so.

:::

The dbt Cloud Enterprise plan supports a number of pre-built permission sets to
help manage access controls within a dbt Cloud account. See the docs on [access
control](/docs/cloud/manage-access/about-user-access) for more information on Role-Based access
