If you don't need full Organization Administration access then an existing Organization Admin or Site Admin can grant you either Jira Administrator access, Site Administrator access, or both.

Hi @sergeyt ,

the current org admin can do the following

* click on the cog icon in upper right
* select user management 
* locate your user and click on Show details 
* click on ellipses and select org admin permissions
