Average Electrical Engineering Supervisor Salary in Egypt for 2026
An electrical engineering supervisor in Egypt earns about 106,960 EGP a year. That's 4% roughly in line with the national average of 111,900 EGP.
Pay ranges widely from country to country and from role to role. The lowest reported salaries in Egypt sit around 56,060 EGP a year, while the very top stretches to 164,200 EGP. Everything on this page is in Egyptian pound (EGP, symbol £), which lets you compare numbers like-for-like without worrying about exchange rates.
The numbers here are pulled together from official government wage data, large independent salary surveys, and aggregated worker-reported pay. Most reported salaries include the benefits that are common in Egypt, such as housing or transport allowances, which is worth keeping in mind if you're comparing against a country where those are usually paid on top.
How much does an electrical engineering supervisor make in Egypt?
A typical electrical engineering supervisor working in Egypt brings home around 8,913 EGP a month before tax. Entry-level pay starts near 56,060 EGP, and the top of the ladder reaches roughly 164,200 EGP for the most experienced and specialised people in the role.
The wide gap between low end and top end reflects how much pay can vary inside the same job title. A junior electrical engineering supervisor 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 electrical engineering supervisor pay ranges in Egypt
A good way to think about salary in Egypt is to look at the distribution rather than the headline average. Half of all electrical engineering supervisors in Egypt earn less than 105,300 EGP 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 70,840 EGP (the 25th percentile), and a quarter clear 134,600 EGP (the 75th percentile). The middle 50% of electrical engineering supervisors sit somewhere inside that band, which is where the typical reader of this page probably lives.
The very lowest reported salaries sit around 56,060 EGP. The highest stretch to 164,200 EGP, 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.
Electrical engineering supervisor pay by experience in Egypt
Years of experience is the single biggest lever on pay for an electrical engineering supervisor in Egypt, 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 electrical engineering supervisor salary changes as you move through the career ladder.
- 0-2 Years62,060 EGP
- 2-5 Years+29% from previous80,020 EGP
- 5-10 Years+42% from previous113,280 EGP
- 10-15 Years+20% from previous136,200 EGP
- 15-20 Years+9% from previous148,300 EGP
- 20+ Years+7% from previous159,100 EGP
The single largest jump on the ladder is from 2 - 5 Years to 5 - 10 Years, where pay rises by about 42%. That is the point at which a electrical engineering supervisor 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.
Electrical engineering supervisor pay by education in Egypt
Education sits alongside experience as one of the biggest factors driving electrical engineering supervisor pay in Egypt. 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.

Electrical engineering supervisor gender pay gap in Egypt
The gender pay gap is a stubborn feature of almost every labour market, and Egypt is no exception. Male electrical engineering supervisors in Egypt earn an average of 119,320 EGP a year, while female electrical engineering supervisors earn around 97,260 EGP. That works out to a 23% 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 electrical engineering supervisor in Egypt

Electrical engineering supervisor bonus rates in Egypt
Bonuses are the other half of total compensation, and they vary a lot between jobs and industries. Some roles are paid almost entirely in base salary; others lean heavily on bonus structures tied to revenue, project completion or company performance. Whether a job pays a bonus, how big it is, and how often it lands all factor into whether the headline salary is actually a good offer.
