This, looks like a high squat bar position but you're treating the squat as if it were low bar.
The high bar starts on top of the traps and the chest stays more vertical and your knees go past your toes.
Low bar the bar stars lower on your back (roughly around your rear delts) and the exercise is starting by pushing the hips back. The knees shouldn't travel past the toes and your upper body will be more horizontal compared to high bar.
Pick one and try it, at the moment it looks a little bit as if you are trying to combine the two.

Bench: 125kg | 275lbs
Deadlift: 235kg | 518lbs

Yeah I see what you mean, Ive tried doing high bar squats but I can't do them without lifting my heels off the ground, so all I've done is widened my stance a bit more. If I want to do a low bar squat all I have to do is sit the bar lower on my back, the it would be fixed?

^ this.
your depth is also not great. not parallel. go deeper, widen your stance try low bar squatting instead.
i cant really tell, but it seems like you go onto your toes when coming up too. i could be wrong, maybe its just the lean forward that makes it look that way but it kind of seems like it.
