Jones has led Wednesday to second from bottom in the Championship, and chairman Milan Mandaric has decided to relieve the manager of his duties at Hillsborough.
Wednesday have won just one game this season and were beaten 2-0 by Blackpool on Saturday.
The news comes just 24 hours after Barnsley sacked their boss David Flitcroft.
