Fatal error compiling: invalid flag: --release for jdk 11 on Jenkins?

Recently I have upgraded spring batch project from java 8 to 11.

It works fine locally, and I decided to push to the Jenkins, but I get the following error.

Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.8.1:compile (default-compile) on project bandwidth: 

Fatal error compiling: invalid flag: --release -> [Help 1]

What should be the cause, and how can I solve it?

Old setting: java 8 in pom

<properties>
    <maven.compiler.source>1.8</maven.compiler.source>
    <maven.compiler.target>1.8</maven.compiler.target>

    <org.springframework-version>3.1.1.RELEASE</org.springframework-version>
    <org.springframework.batch>2.1.9.RELEASE</org.springframework.batch>
    <org.slf4j-version>1.6.2</org.slf4j-version>
</properties>
<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
    <configuration>
            <source>1.7</source>
            <target>1.7</target>
            <encoding>iso-8859-1</encoding>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

New setting: java 11 in pom

<properties>
        <java.version>11</java.version>
        <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>

        <org.springframework-version>3.1.1.RELEASE</org.springframework-version>
        <org.springframework.batch>2.1.9.RELEASE</org.springframework.batch>
        <org.slf4j-version>1.6.2</org.slf4j-version>
</properties>
<plugin>
     <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
     <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
     <version>3.8.1</version>
     <configuration>
            <release>11</release>
            <encoding>iso-8859-1</encoding>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

The problem was with the Jenkins setting which fallback on default system JDK.

I did add the following and corrected Jenkins pointing to JDK 11.

<properties>
     <java.version>11</java.version>
     <maven.compiler.source>11</maven.compiler.source>
     <maven.compiler.target>11</maven.compiler.target>
 <properties>

Thanks to @naman putting me to the right direction.
