The former broadcaster left his role with the Daily Record earlier in December and has ceased working as a BBC Radio Scotland presenter.
A statement read: "James joins Rangers following a distinguished journalistic career with The Herald, Express and Daily Record newspapers as well as being a presenter with the BBC.
"In his role at Ibrox, James will be supported by the Rangers Media editorial team, the press office and external media advisers, Media House."
