I am using Ubuntu 14.04 on a server with multiple NICs. I would like to set
it up as a transparent proxy. I have the router working and I had squid
working as an explicit proxy (where I set the IP address of the server as
the proxy in my client's browser).
Is there a good tutorial which covers this set-up? I've tried setting the
iptables as some have advised but it has issues.
It is not at all clear to me how squid will know which interface faces the
Internet and which faces my client's subnet.

Thanks

The official tutorials:

http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples#Interception

You'll most likely want:

http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Intercept/LinuxDnat

Of interest is the lack of interface specification, so here's what I'm using on a box that has an internal nic(192.168.1.0/24) and an external nic(real world external IP):

$IPTABLES -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -s 192.168.1.96/28 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128 $IPTABLES -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -s 192.168.1.96/28 -p tcp --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3129

This redirects traffic from clients coming in on eth0 to Squid listening process on eth0. If your squid listening process is not on the same nic, you'll need to use DNAT instead:

$IPTABLES -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -s 192.168.1.96/28 -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination ip.that.squid.listens.on:3128 $IPTABLES -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -s 192.168.1.96/28 -p tcp --dport 443 -j DNAT --to-destination ip.that.squid.listens.on:3129

Hope that helps.
