Content-Redaktion
Explanation:
If an editorial board for the content of an Internet portal is referred to, for example, then "content" is used in German as well. If we're talking print media it would probably be only "Redaktion". Depending on the hierarchichal level, it could also be "Content-Chefredaktion".

Inhaltsredaktion


Explanation:
I refuse to use an English expression if there is a German equivalent, and there is (see above). Also see the website listed below (proof):

disagree  Ingar A. Milnes: It is the BOARD of (content-) editors, not EDITORIAL CONTENT(S)!!!

  -> Inhaltsredaktion ist die Redaktion des Inhalts (der Inhalte), dann können auch red. Inhalte das gleiche bedeuten.

für den Inhalt verantwortliches Redaktionskomittee


Explanation:
Wenn der englische Text es nötig findet, das "content" extra einzufügen (meiner Ansicht nach behandelt der editorial board doch sowieso gewöhnlich den Inhalt und nicht die Aufmachung oder so), dann sollte man das im deutschen vielleicht auch wiedergeben.
