For example, plenty of skills and experience in other fields but possible career change is imminent. Who can advise and help. Perhaps for a fee?

Yes, it's called the Job centre!!
If you had any relevent skills, you would know what line of work you can get into.

At present, [to the best of my recollection] it is only available in east London UK but this web site is awesome if you thinking of changing careers.
Sign Up
Enter the times and dates you are free
Enter qualifications and experience
Enter the type of work you would be interested in doing
Enter the amount you want paid
Then employers can request your time; great thing is since you are outsourced from the SliversOfTime agency you don't actually work for the company you are sent to so if you try that job and hate it you don't have to go back.
Just take that career area of the list of your career interests

I would suggest that you signed up with a temping agency. They take all your details, and send you to various places that are suitable for your experience and geography. This benefits you hugely when considering career change for a number of reasons. Firstly, you get to try out different jobs to see what sort of thing you like. Secondly, it puts you in touch with emloyers. When I did temping, about 40% of the employers offered me long term employment. Thirdly, if you don't like somewhere, you just move on to the next thing without tarnishing your employment record. Fourthly, they pay you, you don't pay them. Fifthly, you can sign on with more than one agency (although if you do this you will be on emergency tax)
If you don't actually want to temp, many temping agencies also do the interviews etc for permanent work.
Tip for temping - after you have nsigned on with the agency, phone them each morning to ask if they have anything for you. They have a lot of people on their books, and give the jobs first to those who are keenest.
All the best

All those who give you so called advice are paid by certain employers, this includes the Job Center plus and other employment agencies. Best is to read daily and specialist papers for yourself. Library is a good source & and your brain is the only tool.

I don think you will get this in free! Expert advices are available on payment. However go for a search for JOB SWITCHING and you will get at least a place to begin with.
All the best!

Yeah, they are called "head hunters"....they go further in packaging you, further anyway than the traditional venues for job hunting, such as monster and other online job searches. And you will pay dearly for such attention to detail. Look in the yellow pages under employment. Although they won't be called head hunters, it is the industry name for them.
