Harris travels extensively between his home in the UK and Tor.com Publishing's Head Office in the Flatiron Building in New York. He is also a regular at several British and international conventions, including FantasyCon (UK), the World Fantasy Convention, WorldCon and CONvergence (Minneapolis), where he has been a Guest of Honor on two occasions. On February 8, 2019, he was named as the Guest of Honour for the Canadian science fiction convention, Can*Con.

He joined the newly-created Tor.com Publishing (part of Macmillan Publishing, and a sister imprint to Tor Books) in August 2014, specialising in publishing novellas, though he also edits and publishes full-length novels. His authors' books have won the Nebula and Hugo Awards every year since the imprint's inception, and he regularly edits such authors as Martha Wells, Seanan McGuire, Nnedi Okorafor and Paul Cornell. Seanan McGuire describes him as "Amazing... he makes me better. He forces me to be better. That's a rare and precious thing."

He is a former Chair of the British Fantasy Society, and has chaired two FantasyCon conventions for the society - the first in York in 2014, the second in Nottingham in 2015. He is currently serving on the society's Executive Committee as treasurer. He is also a regular presenter of the British Fantasy Awards.

Harris joined Angry Robot Books when they formed as part of HarperCollins UK in January 2009, during which time he discovered and published authors such as Wesley Chu, Adam Christopher, Cassandra Rose Clarke and Maurice Broaddus. He started as an Assistant Editor, and was gradually promoted until he reached the role of Senior Editor in 2013. He was instrumental in devising and implementing a new ebook subscription service in 2011. He left Angry Robot to head up the editorial division of Macmillan's newly-formed Tor.com Publishing imprint.

He was the publisher of Hub Magazine from 2007 until 2013. Hub Magazine was a short fiction magazine, which lasted for just two issues in print, before becoming a semi-weekly magazine. The magazine folded with issue 147. The print editions were supported by advertising, and when the magazine moved to online-only, they were sponsored by Orbit (part of Hachette), Solaris and Abaddon (part of Rebellion Publishing) and finally by HarperCollins, where Harris worked as part of the editorial staff at Angry Robot Books.

He was also a director (both company director and stage director) for The Dreaming Production Company from 2003-2005 (now no longer operating),. a professional theatre group that staged fantasy and horror-themed plays across the UK. He co-wrote and directed the first professional adaptation of a Terry Pratchett book, Eric, among others.

His early jobs included actor and bartender (where he was a finalist in the Bols / Exchange Bar and Grill Cocktail Bartender of the Year competition in 1993).
