I don't see a point in that. At 300 hours a year, it will take the OP 5 years before they have have enough time to realistically upgrade (2,500 hours).
A lot can happen in 5 years. Most pilots are promised lots of things that never come true when they start a job. 5 years is a big career commitment for a promise.
And if I'm the owner, I would be a little shocked that a 900 hour piston pilot is asking me when they could be captain in a Lear. They are already taking a risk/helping out the OP by having them sit in the right seat of a Lear.
