It takes some effort to find jobs where clients are willing to pay a premium for quality.

I've used Upwork before - if you are experienced enough, you can easily filter the client by a combination of amount spent, average hourly rate paid, prior feedback by contractors, feedback given to contractors and their estimate price (or expertise) for the project. Apply/respond only if the client matches your filter.

But as others have mentioned here, it is cut-throat competition - you have to be patient and very choosy.
