Clayton has provided active service to Fire Brigades in Australia and Emergency Management Victoria and is a sought-after speaker on the topics of firefighter recruiting, fire prevention, climate change’s impacts on fires, and emergency management.[4] With hotter temperatures causing more fires, the demand for skilled firefighters has increased, and with fewer professional firefighters due to aging, Recruitment Australia seeks to fill the gap of resources needed to handle the fire-fighting demands.[5] Fire Recruitment Australia is one of the top resources for anyone who wants to become a firefighter in Australia.

In Australia, where professional fire-fighters are increasingly needed, only 2% of those who apply for firefighter jobs are accepted.[6] With recruitment stagnating in the past decade simultaneously with population increases, there have never been bigger opportunities to join the firefighting force.[7]

Books

Clayton is the author of four books on firefighting:
