The user on jenkins needs to have access to the repo.

Jenkins needs to have the plugin installed

In project configuration then the only thing to do is to check the mark GitHub hook trigger for GITScm polling

In Github repo create the webhook manually.

Obviously make sure the Jenkins can pull the repo, the firewall allows Github webhook IPs etc. See this helper bash script for shorewall.
