Hi Darren, You can launch Maya with a set of environment variables set before launch, as Andy mentioned you can use Rez or we are using a modified version of Ecosystem here.
Starting from this page, you can see which ones you might need to set. https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/maya/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2016/ENU/Maya/files/GUID-925EB3B5-1839-45ED-AA2E-3184E3A45AC7-htm.html You could also write a small python script that sets these, then launches Maya using Popen or similar.
