Hi Christopher, Thanks for your reply. I think there is a way of determining the account Id of each click using the Click View query, as I replied to Ernie's message, but it looks to be very clumsy and awkward.
I have decided to implement cross-account conversion tracking, which will solve the issue and allow me to upload clicks against the manager account Id. For me it has the added benefit that ad accounts can share conversion events, so that if a new account begins to run a campaign optimized on a conversion action that is already used by an existing ad account then the new account will benefit from the accumulated conversion history of the existing one. This may not be relevant in your use case.
