Are you already divorced? How long have you been married? Is the EEA national still in the UK or has left the country?

It is possible to retain the eea residence permit (do a search on this board...it comes up a lot). If it isn't possible in your case, then you would need to apply for a work permit (or other visa) before your residence permit is nullified (i.e. before the divorce).
