Is being an expat with a forester background possible?

Hello,

I would say it might be possible in Sweden and maybe also in Finland. However you may could find more information through this website, https://www.skogssverige.se/en/contact they are also in social media so you may could find like minded Swedish friends through it. All the best!

Sounds neat, although I think I'd prefer Finland as a possible destination over Sweden. I ought to look at both as an option

I am retired from the logging and land clearing biz in both the US and Belize. There is no work for forestry people in Belize because there are no companies large enough to support a forestry department.
The government forestry department will only hire Belize citizens.

Is this for citizens who are native or can it be for immigrants too? Honestly i'm just curious about this one.

It will take you several years to become a citizen of Belize and even then the chance is slim that you would be hired. Jobs are in short supply down here and the preferance  goes to native born Belizeans.
It's a sad situation because the forestry department could certainly use your knowledge and skills.
