I've been doing something like this using the parameterized trigger plugin[1]. I actually use it in two ways. For scheduled builds I use predefined parameters. This lets me have a single build script but with different behaviors based on the parameters set by the upstream job. For some situations I actually generate the parameters for the downstream build using a shell script and in those instances I use the "Parameters from properties file" option instead.
You'll need to setup your build job that does the work using some parameters to control the things you want to control. Also I think I use a bit more shell code in my builds than most people, but I find it gives me a lot of flexibility in how I run things and lets me keep all of the build logic in git. I rarely even use the scm plug-ins since I do some interesting stuff with my git branches in shell code (automatic merging of branches, software version incrementing).
