Well, you have a few options....
oDesk is an example of a great resource. It's basically an online marketplace to pitch projects overseas. They have a few systems set in place to make sure the person is actually working as opposed to checking Facebook or answering Moz questions all day.
eLance essentially the same thing as above. Started out more design heavy as I remember it and more US oriented although that may have changed.
Craigslist, Glassdoor, Monster, SimplyHired.com- Search for SEO Consultant, SEO Manager etc.
What you have laid out are pretty simple SEO upkeep, as far as stuff like title tags, redirects, anchor text etc. and MOZ is an amazing program to help you find all of those things, the problem is getting someone to actually utilize MOZ in a way that helps you. Moz in the hands of my father, is a really cool program that looks nice and makes some really nice email reports that he forwards me numerous times a day. Moz in my hands, becomes an actual tool that can be manipulated. And trust me when I say, I am a peon in comparison to most on these boards.
The problem with the SEO industry that I am a part of, as well as the Graphic Design industry, as well as Social Media is that everybody is either The Best, #1, Guarantees Results, or something like that and in turn can't perform, and ends up giving the rest of us a bad name. At the end of the day, you will have to find someone who you trust, or go with an agency.
LinkedIn is a great resource. The power of referrals is pretty amazing. And honestly these forums from what I have observed are pretty amazing too.
I will leave you with this... You pay with bananas, you are gonna get monkeys.

I did a Moz report and it is the same as alexa pretty much. I am looking for someone to fix the errors
-
If I were in your situation, I would disregard what Alexa says and run a crawl on the site with Moz. Then from there hire a developer to fix the issues if you cannot, then the next crawl that moz does on your site will let you know if he has fixed them.

Missing title tags, duplicate title tags,redirects, broken links, reachability,missing anchor text, stuff like that. Maybe it is not a big deal.

A web developer usually. What problems did it find? Some of those services make a big deal out of things that are not actually problems.

How many pages should we optimise?
I have more than 250 pages on my site including my products. Is it a good idea to optimise each page with a unique keyword or is there a limit to the number of pages we should aim for?

Too Many On-Page Links Reported By SEOmoz
Hi, I recently did run a crawl report for my blog dapazze.com, and found that SEOmoz is reporting many pages on my blog having more than 100 internal links. I opened OSE, and made a search for one of my pages which was reported to contain more than 100 links. And I found it to contain 464 internal links. Here is the link: http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/links?page=1&site=dapazze.com%2F2012%2F10%2Fwin-a-commentluv-premium-single-site-and-multi-site-license-worth-about-154-giveaway-of-october%2F&sort=page_authority&filter=&source=internal&target=page&group=0 Please have a look at it. I have chosen - Show "All" links from "only internal" pages to "this page" option in OSE, which reports me this. I see almost every page in my blog linking to every page. This is not the problem for me. I have also tried to make a search for some popular bloggers, like ProBlogger.net, ShoutMeLoud.com, HellBoundBloggers.com, etc, and all of them have the same problem. Should I be worrying about this problem? What is the problem actually?

Should we create separate product descriptions for our customers' web sites?
Still got my SEO learner plates on, but I'm trying to help a small e-commerce site which makes and sells baby products . They have upwards of 150 independent retailers also selling their products. Mindful of the fact that many of these retailers are copying the same product descriptions to use on their own web sites, I wondered if there was any value in creating separate sets of product descriptions, one for our web site and one for all their trade customers, in order to minimise the amount of duplicated content devaluing our site. In theory Google ought to know that ours is the original source of the content, but some testing has shown customers ranking higher for the same product descriptions. We have a separate area on the site for trade, which contains lots of media information they can use, and we could include a set of product descriptions in this area for trade customers to download, keeping a unique set of product descriptions for ourselves. We won't stop duplicate content entirely, I realise - but do you think it's worth the effort of trying to implement? Our web developer thinks it's a total waste of time and not worth bothering with for the miniscule benefit he thinks we'll gain. Grateful for any pointers.
