I'm curious what kind of job this is where the employer can tell you now that they won't be needing you anymore 2 years from now. The first idea that comes to mind is a factory that they plan to close or something like that. Or perhaps a family owned business and the owner will be retiring and liquidating the company.

Anyway, I agree with am_vanquish. You need to start looking for work ASAP. Depending on how large your employer is, 2 years from now there will be a bunch of people suddenly looking for work in your field. Basically, you are now on a sinking ship. The sooner you get off, the better.
