"I'd love to be involved in that squad," the 26-year-old George told the Times.
"Eddie often speaks about that World Cup and being the No. 1 team in the world by then. I want to be peaking there.
"I'll be 28 heading into that tournament and I hope to be pushing to start, as close to that team as I can."
Jones emphasised the role of substitutes by calling England's options on the bench "finishers" last month.
George said he understood the significance of the role and made the most of his opportunities with England as a replacement.
"The importance that Eddie puts on the 'finishers' — the bench — definitely helps," he added.
"I would always try to challenge them in terms of what more they (coaching staff) needed to see from me."
