H4 can get EAD only if s/he applied for I-485, otherwise, no EAD is given.
YOu can apply for H1 if you found sponsor.
 
Eligbility

No eligibility about job duty for I485, but you have to pass LC and I-140 before I485, and your PD must be current to file I485.

Does that mean that I need to find a sponsor first then go about applying for the above process?
Is is not possible to apply EAD on my own behalf?

LC and I-140 need sponsor, therefore you need sponsor to reach I-485 stage.
 
You said that you are on H4. So you are a dependant on a H1 for your H4 status. Have the person holding the H1 apply for LC and then I-140, after which you can apply for your I-485, provided your priority date is current.
