Job roles: either way to remove them or way to add a role

Background: The new job roles are a mixed bag for our company. One department is basically not represented - we have a lot of reporters and some editors. The closest role for reporters is "technical writer" - which is completely another profession - and there is nothing for editors. Since this is the first thing they see when logging in, this disengages them immediately - it gives the message this content isn't for them. I bet we're not the only organizations with this issue. For example, Skillsoft is being used at universities - but there's no role for professor, teacher, admissions, career counselor, nor registrar.

I see two different ways to resolve this:

Can admins add a role manually? The admin would then pick an existing Skillsoft role whose interests/work aligns best for content generation.

Admins have the ability to remove "role" as something folks are asked to complete when logging in; they are only prompted to add their skills.
