Check that the wheel bearing is ok, there should be no movement when jacked up and rocking the wheel top to bottom, also some pads have a wear indicator that touches the rotor with low pads, check the pads are not worn to low as well, start here.

I don't think its the pads as the brakes were redone not long ago but it might be the bearing. Its also more of a clicking noise than a squeak if that makes a difference and it occurs whenever I turn the wheel in either direction.

That will be a CV joint in a drive shaft, have them inspected.
