How transportation and shipping supervisor 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 transportation and shipping supervisors in Pakistan earn less than 466,300 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 301,600 PKR (the 25th percentile), and a quarter clear 615,000 PKR (the 75th percentile). The middle 50% of transportation and shipping supervisors sit somewhere inside that band, which is where the typical reader of this page probably lives.

The very lowest reported salaries sit around 207,800 PKR. The highest stretch to 693,100 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.

Transportation and shipping supervisor pay by experience in Pakistan

Years of experience is the single biggest lever on pay for a transportation and shipping supervisor 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 transportation and shipping supervisor salary changes as you move through the career ladder.

  • 0-2 Years
    239,000 PKR
  • 2-5 Years

    +6% from previous
    598,600 PKR
  • 20+ Years
    +9% from previous
    653,200 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 transportation and shipping 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.


Transportation and shipping supervisor pay by education in Pakistan

Education sits alongside experience as one of the biggest factors driving transportation and shipping supervisor 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.

Transportation and shipping supervisor gender pay gap in Pakistan

The gender pay gap is a stubborn feature of almost every labour market, and Pakistan is no exception. Male transportation and shipping supervisors in Pakistan earn an average of 476,600 PKR a year, while female transportation and shipping supervisors earn around 407,300 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.
