I used the at command to execute scripts that would pull files from csv, and make changes to each file, and put them back into the repository. I ran the at command on Friday before leaving with the start time after everyone should be out enjoying a cold beer, and it ran over the week end with the output going to a file so I could verify all went well when I got to work on Monday morning. If your script run with cron, they should do well under at. Not sure if this helps your situation, but you did mention a one shot cron job.
