- Start SQL Enterprise manager
- Open your server
- open the Management folder
- right mouse on SQL Server Agent and select properties
- select Job System tab
- UNCHECK the box in the section 'Non SysAdmin job step proxy account'
  which says 'Only users with SysAdmin priveleges can ...'
- when the dialog comes up enter the username, password, [domain] of
  some defined Windows user with sysAdmin priveleges (create one if needed first).
- click Apply and OK
