Harris has been involved in parish ministry since 1985, but moved to Adelaide in 1995, [4] and spent 13 years as rector of St Matthew's Kensington and as Archdeacon for 18 months, before moving to Nelson, New Zealand, for three and a half years to serve as Dean of Bishopdale College, and later as Archdeacon for Theological Education and Ministry Formation in the Anglican Diocese of Nelson.

In 2011 Harris moved back to Adelaide to take up the appointment as Bishop and was consecrated on 20 November 2011. [1] The major focus of his role is on encouraging and developing ‘mission and evangelism’ within the Diocese, alongside some teaching at St Barnabas College. [4]
