Best Group or Permissions for Domain User to run Scheduled Task

I need to run a Scheduled Task as a domain user. For the sake of explanation, let's just say: DOMAIN/Scheduled_Tasks is the user.
I've created the Scheduled Task in question (just a simple, local Powershell script) and when this user (DOMAIN/Scheduled_Tasks) is in the local Administrator group, the Task runs as expected.
When I remove the user out of the local Administrator Group, the task bombs with:
Using local security policy, I've added this user to:
Security Settings -> Local Settings -> User Rights Assignment -> Allow Log On Locally
Security Settings -> Local Settings -> User Rights Assignment -> Log On As A Batch Job
Security Settings -> Local Settings -> User Rights Assignment -> Log On As A Service
What are some options here to get DOMAIN/Scheduled_Tasks to run a Task without adding that user to the Administrator Group?
