The market
The marketing coordinator pay market in Uruguay
How pay works in Uruguay
Uruguay is the region's most expensive talent market and its most institutionally stable one, leading Latin America on governance and software exports per capita. Montevideo's pool is small but senior, with a high share of professionals who have already worked for foreign clients. Pay runs about five percent above the regional average, and for engineering roles the gap versus the cheaper markets is real.
Why US companies hire this role nearshore
Marketing teams need execution capacity more than another strategist, and coordination work is well defined and nearshore-friendly. A Latin American coordinator runs campaign logistics, builds reports, and supports email, content, and paid channels on your time zone for a cost that stretches a marketing budget further.
By seniority

| Senior (6 or more years) | $3,282 to $4,177 | $3,730/mo | $44,760 | 58% |

Senior: Sets the standard, mentors others, handles ambiguity well. Run an exact figure through the salary guide or model the full cost with the hiring cost calculator.

Pay structure
How marketing coordinator pay is structured in Uruguay
The statutory rules that sit behind a Uruguayan salary figure. A managed nearshore rate folds all of this into one flat monthly number.
Statutory bonus
Aguinaldo (sueldo anual complementario): roughly one extra month of pay per year, about an 8.3% uplift on annual salary. Paid in two halves, by the end of June and before December 20.
Paid time off
20 working days of statutory vacation in the first full year, plus about 5 national public holidays. 20 working days of paid annual leave after one year of service, rising by one day for every four years worked, up to 25 days. Workers also earn a vacation salary (salario vacacional) on top of regular pay for the days they take.
Minimum wage context
The 2026 statutory floor in Uruguay is UYU 25,383, about $640 a month. A mid-level marketing coordinator at $2,520 earns a multiple of that floor, which is what makes these roles attractive careers locally.
Severance on exit
One month of pay per year of service, capped at six months. Worth budgeting up front even though a managed plan handles it for you. Uruguay's six month cap keeps maximum exposure low and predictable even for long-tenured staff, which makes termination cost one of the easiest in the region to forecast.
What moves the rate
What affects a marketing coordinator's salary in Uruguay
The role-side factors that push a Uruguayan marketing coordinator toward the top or bottom of the band.
Channel breadth
Supporting one channel sits lower than coordinating email, content, paid, and events together, which demands more organization and tool fluency.
Marketing ops fluency
Comfort with a marketing automation platform, a CMS, and analytics tools lifts pay for coordinators who can build and report without heavy oversight.
Ownership level
A coordinator who owns a channel's calendar and metrics, rather than only executing tasks, moves toward the manager band.

Offer guidance for Uruguay
You are paying for reliability and seniority here, not volume, so benchmark against the top of the regional band rather than the middle. The aguinaldo is paid in two half-month installments, in June and December, and statutory vacation includes a salary supplement, both of which a fully loaded rate should include. Candidates respond to stable, long-term engagements more than to small premiums on the monthly number.
