Former West Ham and West Brom boss Bilic had been out of management since leaving Chinese club Beijing Guoan.
Bilic’s first match in charge will be a trip to Stoke City on Sunday.
Bilic guided West Ham to a seventh-placed finish in his first season in charge, in 2015-16, and steered West Brom to Championship promotion in 2019-20 before being sacked in December 2020.
