Then you make admin but only give that permission. Groups & permissions >> Staff >> Administrators

Your next post will probably be: "But I don't want them to be an admin."

Semantics. This is an administrative duty, so you need to grant them this administrator permission. This does not mean they are an administrator of your site. It means you have granted a moderator an administrative permission. They don't need to be in your admin group.

It's a good point that they could add those other permissions to themselves.

Edit: See above I didn't think of that. That might be what's called a "loophole" if possible.

Still though, if you trust the person, that's what matters.
