Anon 2.29pm, it depends what you do. If you're an analyst working in acute commissioning, yes, a CSU is probably where you'd expect to end up. If you're working as a public health analyst, it might be the local authority/ PHE. But CCGs had the choice of do, share or buy, so it maybe that they've chosen to buy informatics support from outside, in which case you may be TUPE'd over. Or your job might be difficult to split up across functions and you might have several options depending on the weighting. I know this report isn't very useful and the IT Strategy is due out in April after having been put back so many times, but have a browse:

I am a little cynical and think that like estates management, the DH may look to form a company or a CIC or something different for NHS IT.
But either way, please get advice from HR and your union rep.
And hang in there, the private sector is a mess. I left the NHS and have been made redundant twice, and am now working as an independent, it's hard wherever you are. I wasn't looking for silly money, just more stability than endless reorganisations and to learn new skills, but be careful, the grass isn't greener, just a different shade.
Good luck to all
