When you say "work" I assume you mean "where I get paid" . There will be no "breaking in" - keep that in mind. There will be no, "and then I just made a lot of money". But there will be opportunities you can grasp.
If you want to make money, you first have to find out where they can be earned. As a starter, I'd recommend Fiverr.com - you can put yourself out and people can contact you, or you find someone in search of a voice actor on there.
So what do you need to deliver?
That depends oh so much on what you will be hired for. The "easiest" kind of jobs will properly be a commercial of various sort, where they look for "the average next door guy/gal", which is just you talking, as if you are talking to a friend - chill guy/gal who informs of something. From what I hear, that's the new trend in commercials.
That was location, and it was a market. Now you need to deliver something.
You need a few things:
There are two options, where the first is perfectly fine if you have a very quiet room, but the second will ensure some quality over the first one - you can use a USB microphone, or get an XLR microphone.
If you just want to start, and you want to be able to sell what you record, you need a high-end USB microphone. That would be the Apogee MiC or the Røde NT-usb - they cost... they do, but they deliver clean sound. Can you get a cheaper microphone - yes, but they might not sell...
The second option would be getting an external sound card, then an XLR microphone, and that would cost you.
Ask away for specifics if you need more.
