What's the meaning of “ ending up with Jack”?
Look at the progression that Tess took. Frustrated and hemmed in at her job, she wanted to succeed, and so she prepared, always doing her homework. Then, in a giant leap of faith in herself, she moved across a room to speak to the person who could change her circumstances. And that is exactly what happened—including ending up with Jack.

by itself "ending with jack" would mean, by the end of it all, she will have nothing
in this context, it means that she doesn't seem to like Jack very much, but she needs someone to change her circumstances, and if she is desperate enough, she'll have to work with Jack.

By itself, "ending up with jack" (lowercase j) means "having nothing in the end". But in this context you quoted, as I understand it, it likely means "she will end up/ begin working with Jack", a colleague of hers.
