Spanish term or phrase: equipo directivo
The term "equipo directivo" is used in the context of a university faculty. I'm translating into UK English, would it be stg. like "Governing Board" or "Board of Trustees"?

Thanks in advance

faculty board
Explanation:
I assume this is to do with the administration of the faculty and does not concern the board of trustees (more context would have been a help!). There are thousands of examples in Google (from all over the world):

The Faculty Board of the Faculty of Law consists of the Dean, members of the Faculty, staff members and student members. The Board has the authority to administer the affairs of the Faculty under such regulations as the Board of Trustees may prescribe. The Principal is an ex-officio member of the Faculty Board.http://qsilver.queensu.ca/law/calendar/board.htm

A Faculty Board is the steering body for each academic field. It consists of the senior members of the faculty, and meets to discuss issues relating to the organisation and conduct of teaching and research in the field. http://www.gradunion.cam.ac.uk/publications/handbook1999/c8/...

Explanation:
Governing Board/Board of Trustees is more specific than the Spanish, which doesn't indicate who is included in the <team>, so you need to be just as vague.
