Set an environment variable called CMDER_ROOT to your root Cmder folder (in my case C:\Program Files (x86)\Cmder). It seems to be important that this does not have quotes around it because they mess with concatenation in the init script.
In your IntelliJ terminal settings, use "cmd" /k ""%CMDER_ROOT%\vendor\init.bat"" as the Shell path. The double-double-quotes are intentional, as they counteract the missing double quotes in the environment variable.
So, with credit to the Factorio wiki and cbednarski's helpful gist, I managed to eventually setup a Factorio headless server. Although, I thought the process could be nailed down/simplified to be a bit more 'tutorialised' and also to document how I got it all working for my future records.
The specific distro/version I'm using for this guide being Ubuntu Server 16.04.1 LTS. Although, that shouldn't matter, as long as your distro supports systemd (just for this guide, not a Factorio headless requirement, although most distros use it as standard now).
The version of Factorio I shall be using is 0.14.20, although should work for any version of Factorio 0.14.12 and higher.
Just a note to newcomers: If there are any issues with the installation steps, people in the comments are doing a good job
