It is built into Django already. Look at django.contrib.auth ...

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/ref/contrib/auth/#django.contrib.auth.models.Group

If you think "role" when you see "group" you have it already.

The key to success is to NEVER assign permissions to individual users.
Roles (ie groups) need to be nicely named and given exactly the
permissions required. You can then put different users into one or more
groups as necessary. Next write a few utilities such as is_editor(user)
or is_reporter(user) and so on.
