Where can I find a FM scripting expert?

Either because of my novice-level of FM knowledge or the limitations of FM itself (I'm probably too much of a novice to know the difference yet), there are things my company would very much like to automate in assembling data and then formatting and publishing books for print and web. I/we have the master pages/styles and that covered; we're not looking for a designer, more like we want to be able to string together specific actions in specific situations (i.e., "when a bulleted list is encountered, substitute the bullet points with square glyph, apply styles 1, 2, and 3"). So, kind of like what I'd do with making a Nested Style in ID and then an Action using the nested style, but with a functionality where it is automatically applied when importing formats. Does that make sense? Is this something we should/need to hire a freelancer/contractor for? And if so, could anyone recommend a good way to find one? Thanks.
