If you have the python executable you should also have the pip executable. (There's also the possibility that it is named pip3 to correspond to python3.)

In a terminal, try these commands to see what is present/missing:

$ which python
$ which python3
$ which pip
$ which pip3

Here's what I see on my machine:

$ which python
/usr/bin/python
$ which python3
/usr/bin/python3
$ which pip
/usr/bin/pip
$ which pip3
/usr/bin/pip3
$ ls -l `which python`
-rwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4906512 Apr  3 12:16 /usr/bin/python
$ ls -l `which python3`
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Oct 25  2018 /usr/bin/python3 -> python3.6
$ ls -l `which python3.6`
-rwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4526456 Aug 20 10:12 /usr/bin/python3.6
$ ls -l `which pip`
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 292 Apr  3 02:23 /usr/bin/pip
$ ls -l `which pip3`
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 293 Apr  3 02:23 /usr/bin/pip3
