I know it's an old thread and you might already know this but here goes 🙂
Role-assignable groups is in public preview. You need Azure AD Premium P1 or P2 for group members and to create one, you need to have the Privileged Role Admin or Global Admin role.
If that is ok, you will see an extra slider option when creating a group 'Azure AD roles can be assigned to the group'. Set this to Yes and at the bottom choose the roles you want to assign.
Note you cannot change this setting (on/off) later and so you cannot add this capability to existing groups nor disable it afterwards.
