No idea why this won't work, maybe you forgot the

#!/bin/bash 

or to make the script executable.

This will wait for qjackctl to terminate before doing
anything else.

You could try:

qjackctl &


If this is to run standalone, why run qjackctl at all ?
Just start jack with the required parameters, e.g.:

---
#!/bin/bash

# Make sure to start from a clean state.
#
killall -9 zita-j2a
killall -9 jackd
#...
sleep 1

# Start jack and anything else required.
#
jackd -P 70 -d alsa -d hw:0,0 -r 48000 -p 256 -n 2
sleep 2
zita-j2a -d CODEC_1
#...
---
