Jacobs became new manager of FC Copenhagen in June 2012 following Carsten V. Jensen's resignation. His first season as manager of the club was a success and he led the club to the Danish Superliga-*le in the 2012–13 season. On 21 August 2013, he was sacked as manager of FC Copenhagen as he failed to win in his first five games in the league.

On 14 October 2013, Jacobs was appointed manager of Valenciennes FC. He failed to secure the team from relegation following the 2013–14 Ligue 1 and he therefore left the club in July 2014.
