Thanks Rob, but my problem wasn't regarding master-slave setup, we run the 
builds locally on the master.

To whom it may concern, our solution was as follows:
1) Adding builder to jenkins permission group
2) Changing the variable JENKINS_USER located in /etc/sysconfig/jenkins 
value to "builder"
3) Removing /var/lib/jenkins folder
4) Restarting Jenkins

Hope it will help someone in the future :)
