Jake came through the Diamonds youth set up and made his debut while still a first year scholar. He played in Diamonds Hillier Senior Cup defeat against Brackley Town on 12 January 2011, before making his League debut, coming on as a second half substitute in the 2-0 win at Histon in April.

In February 2011, he scored the goal that helped the Diamonds Youth Team reach the Final of the Midland Youth Cup and played a big part in lifting the Cup, scoring the winning goal. With the demise of Diamonds at the end of the first year of his scholarship, Jake joined the youth set-up at Luton Town at the start of the 2011/2012 season, and made his debut in the FA Trophy tie at Hinckley United in January 2012. In the summer of 2012, he accepted a two year deal with the Hatters and on 7 January 2013, went out on a one month loan deal to struggling Southern Premier side Hitchin Town. The loan deal was later extended for a further month until 10 March. After Jake’s return to the Hatters, he went on a three-month loan the following season to Conference South side Boreham Wood from 5 September, but returned early on 4 October after 5 appearances for the Wood. On 14 October 2013, Jake joined Southern League Premier side St.Neots Town on another loan deal, until the end of the season. Following Luton’s promotion to the Football League, Jake was released by the club at the beginning of May 2014. On 2 July 2014, Jake joined Southern Premier side Cambridge City, but left early into the season after 1 goal from 5 substitute appearances. He joined NPL Division One South side Coalville Town on 28 August 2014. After two successful seasons there, winning the “Golden Boot”, he joined Rugby Town in 2016, but left there during the 2016/17 season, joining Hinckley AFC, before moving to Shepshed Dynamo in 2017. After injury problems he returned to Coalville Town early in 2018. From there he joined Atherstone Town in November 2018.
