There is a plugin for that: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Template+Project+Plugin

This plugin seems interesting. It allows to replace the build steps by "reuse steps from another project", some publishers (JUnit and family) by "reuse publishers from another project".
However:
* The quality of integration may vary from a plugin to the other (for example it works well with Git but has bugs with SVN, or some post-build triggers are ignored). So we need more testing to make sure it works good enough for our jobs
* There is currently no way to import/factorize/templatize parameters: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-23204

> Found something a bit more complete than the maven plugin - haven't tried it yet but its examples looks extremely clean.
> python script for creating jobs (linked to puppet but can be used standalone)
