How assistant business development manager 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 assistant business development managers in Pakistan earn less than 1,320,500 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 888,400 PKR (the 25th percentile), and a quarter clear 1,678,300 PKR (the 75th percentile). The middle 50% of assistant business development managers sit somewhere inside that band, which is where the typical reader of this page probably lives.

The very lowest reported salaries sit around 659,400 PKR. The highest stretch to 2,038,500 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.

Assistant business development manager pay by experience in Pakistan

Years of experience is the single biggest lever on pay for an assistant business development manager 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 assistant business development manager salary changes as you move through the career ladder.

  • 0-2 Years
    786,600 PKR
  • 2-5 Years
    +33% from previous

    1,800,200 PKR
  • 20+ Years

Assistant business development manager pay by education in Pakistan

Education sits alongside experience as one of the biggest factors driving assistant business development manager 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.

Assistant business development manager gender pay gap in Pakistan

The gender pay gap is a stubborn feature of almost every labour market, and Pakistan is no exception. Male assistant business development managers in Pakistan earn an average of 1,357,900 PKR a year, while female assistant business development managers earn around 1,259,300 PKR. That works out to a 8% 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.
