Thanks for the additional context Linda. I kind of already knew about it because I'd seen your other question, and thus my answer remains the same. It's the most plausible translation of which I can think! "Role concept" is something used commonly in databases; it wouldn't surprise me at all if this is the translation you need.

  -> True, but given that it is a job description and there doesn't seem to be much context, I wanted to offer an option that is commonly used in database lingo! Also, I answered it considering the other question posted (Rechtevergabe).

agree  Alexander Schleber (X): "role concept" is right as a translation, but not in the source sentence. That should be either "definition of role concepts" or more generally "management of role concepts".

  -> Good point; I'm afraid I came up with the translation when there was still no context and simply got stuck.
