this is perfectly possible just by configuring eZ Publish through the admin interface. You should go to the "User accounts" tab and then you should find a link (in the left column) "Roles and policies" you can create your own policies and assign them to a group of user. Those policies can define what the users are able to do.
You can read The-User-accounts-tab in the documentation to find details on that topic.
Thanks for your speedy reply and the link to the resource. I can understand how to attach the policies now but I am finding the amount of policies and the policy names confusing. Nothing strikes me in the list of policies what controls the permission of allowing users edit other users.
Would you by any chance know what one it could be?
Thanks,
Simon

When you add a policy to a role you can restrict it. Depending on the module / function, you have different type of available limitations. In your case, I think you should use content / edit and set a limitation on object of the class User.
