Born in Perth (Australia), Jones joined the Everton youth setup at the age of 12 and progressed through the apprentice ranks whilst also winning caps for Wales in the under-16, 17 and 18 sides. He played in a variety of positions during his development, often in central midfield, but he was eventually converted to a right-back to make best use of his pace. He co-captained the Everton side that won the Under-18 Premier League title in 2013-14 and then signed a one-year professional contract with the Toffees that summer. His first Wales under-21 cap followed in September 2014, and to end a highly successful year, his Everton first team debut came three months later when he was brought on as a final-minute substitute against Russian side FC Krasnodar in the Europa League.
With the fourth tier play-offs a real possibility, Argyle signed Jones on loan in March 2015 until the end of the season, although his call-up for the Wales under-21 squad for a game against Bulgaria meant that he was unavailable for selection on his first Saturday with the club. At the end of the season, after the League Two play-off semi-final against Wycombe Wanderers ended in defeat, Jones returned to his parent club.
In July 2015, Jones penned a new two-year contract with Everton, his second professional contract with the club.
