Is it possible to install and configure gam in a way that doesn't require a super-admin account? My company doesn't want to grant SA permissions for security reasons, but I'd like to be able to automate user admin actions like creating users etc. which shouldn't require SA permissions.

Yes, GAM works with delegated admins assuming they have an admin role which grants them permissions to do the required actions of the given GAM command.

I'd suggest setting up a delegated admin and testing the GAM commands you wish to use with it to understand minimum needed role and permissions.
