Career Path to Bizjets?

I am looking for some impartial career advice on becoming a pilot in the Biz Jet arena. Most advice I have found seems to be aimed getting a job with the airlines, and as much as I may very well end up there - this is not my aim. My aim is, and always has been to be the pilot of a Biz Jet. Does anyone have any advice or links to advice that may answer;-
  • What is the career path to a Lear Jet, Cessna Citation, Gulfstream etc..... pilot
  • Who are the employers of such pilots
  • What experience do these employers require
  • Are there many opportunities in this area
  • What is salary like for this kind of work (I am assuming considerably lower than the airlines)
Many thanks in advance.
