Slow speed squeal

My 3.0 2010 has an annoying squeal when braking lightly, it’s an auto so when using the brake to crawl towards a junction or manoeuvring into the garage.

I think the PO has replaced the pads in the last year or so but I’m unsure what brand has been used.

I suspect better quality pads may be needed but what brands do folks recommend? I’ve had ok results with Brembo and Pagid in other cars.

Thanks
 
I guess its a possibility but they only squeal when I'm pressing the pedal lightly.

Apparently the pads were 'Blue Point" from Opie. Not a brand I'm familiar with.
 
They are now, front pads changed for Brembos, rear pads still Blue Point. No more squeal at the front but still a slight noise from the rear.

I think there may be a snag changing the rears? Am I correct?

Pity about the fronts as they’re hardly worn at all
