Full Job Description
HR Shared Services is the front door for employee questions at Instructure. Our team handles day-to-day questions and owns complex cases: escalations, compliance-sensitive issues, and the problems that don't have a template answer yet.

What you'll do.
  • Manage and coach a team of HR specialists, including performance, development, and day-to-day workload.
  • Own escalations and complex employee cases end to end, from intake through resolution, keeping quality and consistency high.
  • Take ownership of AskHR reporting and dashboards, turning ticket and case data into insights HR leadership can act on.
  • Monitor knowledge base quality and close gaps so employees can self-serve more and escalate less.
  • Drive process improvement, especially where automation can take on more of the routine volume.
  • Some of the specific processes you'll own include: immigration, global compliance, background checks and reporting
  • Cross-functional partnership with Payroll, IT and other HR COEs.
What you'll bring.
  • Three to five years of HR experience, ideally in a shared services, HR operations, or people support environment.
  • One to two years leading a team
  • Comfort with case management and ticketing tools (we use Jira and Confluence); dashboard or reporting experience is a strong plus.
  • Sound judgment on sensitive or ambiguous cases, and the ability to know when something needs to be escalated further.
  • Experience with Workday or a similar HRIS.
  • Exposure to global or multi-region HR support
