The numbers here are pulled together from official government wage data, large independent salary surveys, and aggregated worker-reported pay.

A typical import coordinator working in Pakistan brings home around 41,783 PKR a month before tax. Entry-level pay starts near 237,400 PKR, and the top of the ladder reaches roughly 792,900 PKR 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 import 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 import 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 import coordinators in Pakistan earn less than 531,700 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 345,700 PKR (the 25th percentile), and a quarter clear 704,300 PKR (the 75th percentile). The middle 50% of import coordinators sit somewhere inside that band, which is where the typical reader of this page probably lives.

The very lowest reported salaries sit around 237,400 PKR. The highest stretch to 792,900 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.

Import coordinator pay by experience in Pakistan

Years of experience is the single biggest lever on pay for an import 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 import coordinator salary changes as you move through the career ladder.

  • 0-2 Years
    273,300 PKR
  • 2-5 Years
    +38% from previous
    376,800 PKR
  • 5-10 Years
    +42% from previous
    535,800 PKR
  • 10-15 Years
    +22% from previous
    652,200 PKR
  • 15-20 Years
    +6% from previous
    689,900 PKR
  • 20+ Years
    +9% from previous
    748,600 PKR

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 import 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.


Import coordinator pay by education in Pakistan

Education sits alongside experience as one of the biggest factors driving import 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 import coordinator salary in Pakistan broken down by the highest level of education a worker has completed.

  • Certificate or Diploma

Import 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 import coordinators in Pakistan earn an average of 548,800 PKR a year, while female import coordinators earn around 467,100 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 import coordinator in Pakistan

Most countries hand out at least some kind of pay raise every year, typically when an employee's contract is reviewed or as a cost-of-living adjustment to keep wages roughly in step with inflation. The rhythm and size of those raises varies hugely between industries.

A typical worker doing this role in Pakistan sees a raise of about 9% every 20 months, which works out to roughly 5% on an annual basis. That figure is the typical underlying rate; in years where inflation runs high you can usually expect a bit more, and in flat-economy years a bit less.
