Jones grew up in Long Ashton, a small village on the outskirts of Bristol. He attended Backwell School and played at the Southampton Academy in Bath.[citation needed]
Jones played on loan for Scottish Premiership club St Mirren during the 2018–19 season, but the agreement was terminated by St Mirren in January 2019.[3]
On 2 July 2019, Jones signed a season-long loan with Gillingham.[4] During his spell with the club, he made 36 appearances in all competitions.[5]
On 4 September 2020, Jones joined League One side Hull City for an undisclosed fee, signing a one-year deal.[6] He made his debut for the club on 8 September 2020, in the 1–2 loss to Leicester City U21 in the first round match of the EFL Trophy.[7] On 18 May 2021, the club announced that they had exercised the option of a one-year contract extension for Jones.[8] On 9 June 2021, Hull City announced that Jones had signed a new two-year contract, with the club having the option of a further year.[9]
Having been used mostly as a defender prior to his arrival at Gillingham, Jones spent most of his time with the League One club playing as a midfielder.[10]
