A typical accounting coordinator working in Pakistan brings home around 50,283 PKR a month before tax. Entry-level pay starts near 282,300 PKR, and the top of the ladder reaches roughly 954,900 PKR for the most experienced and specialised people in the role.

A junior accounting coordinator working at a small local employer earns very different money from a senior at a multinational. Skills, employer, city and years in the seat all push the number around.


How accounting coordinator pay ranges in Pakistan

A good way to think about salary in Pakistan is to look at the distribution rather than the headline average. Half of all accounting coordinators in Pakistan earn less than 639,900 PKR a year, and the other half earn more. That middle number is the median, and it is usually more useful than the average for answering "is my pay normal here".

Looking at the quartiles fills in the picture. A quarter of earners take home less than 415,900 PKR (the 25th percentile), and a quarter clear 844,600 PKR (the 75th percentile). The middle 50% of accounting coordinators sit somewhere inside that band, which is where the typical reader of this page probably lives.

The very lowest reported salaries sit around 282,300 PKR. The highest stretch to 954,900 PKR, though only a small fraction of earners ever reach that level. If you are deciding whether your own offer or current pay is reasonable, work out which of those four bands you would fall into and use that as your reference point.

Accounting coordinator pay by experience in Pakistan

Years of experience is the single biggest lever on pay for an accounting coordinator in Pakistan, ahead of education and almost any other single factor. The longer you have been in the role, the more your employer can trust you to handle complexity, mentor others and act independently, all of which command higher pay. The chart below shows how the typical accounting coordinator salary changes as you move through the career ladder.

  • 0-2 Years
    327,800 PKR
  • 2-5 Years
    +37% from previous
    450,300 PKR
  • 5-10 Years
    +43% from previous
    643,400 PKR
  • 10-15 Years
    +21% from previous
    781,200 PKR

    +6% from previous
    825,900 PKR
  • 20+ Years
    +9% from previous
    899,900 PKR

The single largest jump on the ladder is from 2 - 5 Years to 5 - 10 Years, where pay rises by about 43%. That is the point at which a accounting coordinator typically goes from "competent in the role" to "the person other people in the team learn from", and the market pays well for that step.


Accounting coordinator pay by education in Pakistan

Education sits alongside experience as one of the biggest factors driving accounting coordinator pay in Pakistan. Higher qualifications consistently pull higher salaries, but the size of the gap tends to be smallest at junior levels and widens as people move up. Two people in the same role with the same years of experience but different degrees can end up earning very different money once they reach mid-career.

Below is the average accounting coordinator salary in Pakistan broken down by the highest level of education a worker has completed.

  • High School

  • Certificate or Diploma

Accounting coordinator gender pay gap in Pakistan

The gender pay gap is a stubborn feature of almost every labour market, and Pakistan is no exception. Male accounting coordinators in Pakistan earn an average of 659,400 PKR a year, while female accounting coordinators earn around 562,200 PKR. That works out to a 17% gap in favour of men, even when comparing people doing the same work.

A pay gap of this size has a real long-term cost. Over a typical thirty-year career it can add up to several years of pay, and it compounds through pensions, retirement contributions and bonus-linked stock. Some of the gap is explained by women being more likely to work part-time, take career breaks, or be steered toward lower-paying specialisations. Some of it is straightforward unequal pay for the same job, which is harder to defend.

Pay raises for an accounting coordinator in Pakistan
