You can do this with user permissions. Just set up different groups, with different privileges, for each of the 'roles' you might want to assign people, and then assign their user account to the relevant group.
This answer shows how you can do it with a fairly simple GUI. Just install gnome-system-tools through the software centre or from the command line and you should be able to see how to set things up.
