Reach becomes the fourth signing of the Ismael era at The Hawthorns following the arrivals of Alex Mowatt, Quevin Castro and Matt Clarke.
The 28-year-old started his career at Middlesbrough and spent five years there, making a total of 79 appearances in all competitions.
Following the conclusion of the 2015/16 season in which Middlesbrough were promoted to the Premier League, Reach left the club to join Sheffield Wednesday.
He became a key player for the Owls over his five years at the club, scoring some sensational goals along the way.
In total, he scored 24 times in 232 appearances in all competitions.

“I share those ambitions of wanting to play in the Premier League.
“It’s the most exciting challenge of my career and it’s certainly the biggest challenge of my career.
“I pride myself on making a lot of appearances for clubs. I want to make plenty of appearances here and have my best years here. I just cant wait to get started.”

Pereria was one of the stars of the Championship during West Brom’s last campaign in the second tier, which resulted in their promotion to the Premier League.
The Brazilian also shone for the Baggies despite their disappointing return to the top flight, leading to links with him staying in the Premier League.
In his message, Pereira said: “I don’t want to leave the club through the back door, that was never my plan or my intention, quite the contrary. I want the club to be adequately rewarded for believing in me and supporting me for two seasons. Three weeks ago I received an offer that would change my life and my family’s life forever.”
