AlumniHi,
Alexei's right. As far as I know, TestComplete/TestExecute started from Jenkins will run in a non-interactive user session, and will not be able to perform UI actions.
Some continuos integration systems provide special non-service utilities to avoid this problem. For example, MS Team Foundation Server can run a Build Agent as a service, or as an interactive app that is just waiting for a command (like a service does). This is called an Interactive Build Agent. You can find more information here.
I am not sure if Jenkins has this ability, but this is something you may want to check.
