I would just create a group and do this with group permissions. Any
reason why that would not work?
# groupadd shared_folks
# usermod -G shared_folks john
# usermod -G shared_folks james
# chgrp -R shared_folks /home/shared
# find /home/shared -type d -exec chmod 775 {} \;
# find /home/shared -type f -exec chmod 664 {} \;
