On 8 June 2021, Harrison signed for Nottinghamshire on a three-month contract.[6] A month later this was extended to a two-year deal.[7][8] In April 2022, he was bought by the Manchester Originals for the 2022 season of The Hundred.[9]
Harrison made his First Class debut for Nottinghamshire against Essex in May 2023[10][11] and penned a further three-year contract with the club in July that year.[10][11][12] He joined Northamptonshire on a two-match loan in April 2025.[13] On his Northamptonshire debut against Lancashire at Old Trafford, he took 10 wickets in a match for the first time, bagging 11 for 153 including a to-date career best of 7 for 119 in the second innings.[14][15] Having extended his loan agreement,[16] Harrison made his maiden first-class century for Northamptonshire against Kent at the Spitfire Ground on 1 July 2025, scoring 122.[17][18] In October 2025, he joined Northamptonshire on a permanent basis, signing a two-year contract.[19][20]
