VIDEO EDITOR II

Offensive Marketing Group (OMG) is a full‑service marketing agency specializing in the firearms, outdoors, hunting, fishing, and defense industries. We partner with innovative brands to build powerful digital presences, drive measurable results, and connect with passionate audiences. Our team combines deep industry knowledge with cutting‑edge marketing expertise to deliver exceptional work for clients who share our passion for the outdoors lifestyle. From social media and content creation to digital advertising and SEO, we're dedicated to helping our clients succeed in competitive markets. Come be a part of something extraordinary with Offensive Marketing Group! About the Role OMG is seeking a highly qualified Video Editor II who can independently carry commercial projects through the complete post‑production lifecycle - from ingest and organization through final finishing, revisions, export, and client‑ready delivery. This is not an entry‑level editing position, and it is not limited to assembling short‑form content. The right editor combines confident storytelling and visual judgment with strong technical finishing skills across editing, sound, music, color, motion graphics, and basic visual effects. You should be comfortable making decisions, solving problems, working with incomplete direction when necessary, and consistently delivering polished work that serves each client's brand, audience, objectives, and product. As a Video Editor II, you will own assigned projects throughout post‑production with minimal supervision, identifying the strongest and most efficient way to showcase each project while protecting the client's vision, factual accuracy, brand standards, delivery requirements, and the high level of creative quality expected from OMG. Editor II represents full operational independence: you are expected to understand the intent of a project, anticipate problems, communicate realistic timelines, execute revisions efficiently, and deliver work that is ready for internal or client approval. A genuine interest in the firearms, tactical, sporting, or outdoor space is critical. This is an in‑person position based out of our office in north Phoenix, Arizona. Please do not apply if you are not able to work in the office five days a week.
