Jackson holds the Chair in Global Security at the University of Glasgow and was the first Executive Director of the Scottish Council on Global Affairs. He is best known for his contributions to the international history of contemporary France, the cultural turn and the practice of international history and in the field of intelligence and security studies.

He studied at Carleton University (BA), the University of Calgary (MA, where he worked with John Ferris) and the University of Cambridge (PhD, where he was supervised by Christopher Andrew (historian)1234 Christopher Andrew and Zara Steiner1234 Zara Steiner).[1]. He was a John M. Olin Postdoctoral Fellow at International Security Studies at Yale University before taking up a lectureship at Aberystwyth University in 1998. While at Aberystwyth Jackson worked with Len Scott and R Gerald Hughes to set up the Centre for Intelligence and International Security Studies and to found the Gregynog Series of Conferences on Intelligence Studies. Since 2013 Jackson has been Chair of Global Security and Professor of European International History at the University of Glasgow. He has also held visiting professorships at the Institut d’études politiques (Sciences po) in Paris and Université de Paris I (Panthéon-Sorbonne).

Among Jackson's most notable publications are France and the Nazi Menace: intelligence and policy-making, 1933-1939 (Oxford, 2001) which appeared as La France et la menace nazi. Renseignement et politique, 1933-1939 (Paris, 2017), Beyond the Balance of Power: France and the politics of national security in the era of the First World War (Cambridge, 2014), 'Pierre Bourdieu, the Cultural Turn and the Practice of International History' which appeared in the Review of International Studies in 2008 and, with Sébastien Yves Laurent, L'Essor du Renseignement Moderne. Une histoire mondiale de l'espionnage (Paris, 2025). From 2004 through 2015 Jackson was co-editor of Intelligence and National Security, the world's leading academic journal in intelligence studies. Jackson also works on the history of Franco-British relations since 1815 and led an AHRC-funded research project entitled 'The Weight of the Past since 1815, which has produced a range of peer-reviewed publications. He has collaborated on research projects with a range of notable scholars including Joseph Maiolo, Simon Kitson1234Simon Kitson, Simon Ball, Talbot Imlay, William Mulligan, Rachel Utley, Rachel Chin and Sébastien Yves Laurent.

In 2021 Jackson was part of a team (with Juliet Kaarbo and Phillips O'Brien) that launched the Scottish Centre on Global Affairs [SCGA]. The SCGA is a non-partisan research institute on international affairs. It works with the support of the Scottish and Westminster governments as well as various business and third sector actors. Its aim is to marshal expertise on global affairs in Scotland to link it up with policy-stakeholders in the UK and beyond. Jackson served as the first Executive Director of the SCGA from 2021 through 2024. In this role he has engaged extensively with politicians and policy stakeholders and contributed to public debates on international affairs.

Jackson has written numerous op-eds and done extensive media work in outlets ranging from BBC World Service, France 2, France Inter and STV Scotland to China Today, The Irish Times, The Times and The Globe and Mail.
