The 63-year-old former Manchester United defender left his most recent role at West Brom in October 2022, just eight months into an 18-month contract.
“I’m delighted to be back in football and to take charge of this fantastic football club,” Bruce said.
“I look forward to meeting all of the staff and players in the coming days as we prepare for what we all hope will be an exciting season at Bloomfield Road.”
