Cost Control Specialist, Babcock

I am Nick Sellick and I joined Babcock in 2023. I initially joined as a Project Controls Officer, but I am now moving to a Cost Control Specialist role.

Throughout my time here at Babcock Project Management is something that had piqued my interest and getting involved in the APM challenge was a great way to experience this while supporting a fantastic charity iSight Cornwall.

In my spare time I enjoy playing badminton and taking my cocker spaniel Millie out on adventures.

Session | APM Project Management Challenge winners 2026: How our project delivered benefits to iSight Cornwall.

Sight’s mission is to provide practical, emotional, and timely support to people with sight loss. They do this through face-to-face sessions helping them live independently with specialised equipment. Their vision is focused on creating a future where people with sight loss have opportunities and live without limitation.

We Project managed the delivery of a high-quality gaming livestream on both Twitch and TikTok. This was hosted by Dom who is a blind team member to showcase the accessibility opportunities for those affected by sight loss, to promote awareness and future-proof the charity.

Our planned benefits were to drive direct revenue into the charity, boost community engagement and increase awareness. Our success criteria followed the topic of iSight’s 170th anniversary. First was to increase live viewers by 170, increase donations by £170 and increase followers by 170. We far exceeded those goals and reached nearly 1,500 viewers, raised £480, and gained over 1,300 followers. We gained global reach for iSight, with viewers and followers from USA, Canada, and the Netherlands.
