From your description it could be a graphic designer, or a retoucher - depends entirely on what you are doing.
If you are preparing images for an advertisement, it could cover both graphic design and retouching. If you are adding text or logos or doing the ad layout - then it's definitely graphic design, if you are just retouching a photo, then you are doing the work of a retoucher.
Graphic designers often do their own photo retouching as well as graphics - all part of the job.
If they are expecting you to do this regularly, then they should be paying you more. It goes way above what is normally considered office admin.

So much would depend on the general procedure within your organisation.
Many people do use the word 'editing' when manipulating a photo image. In older times such a person was called a 'retoucher', when such work was done physically rather than in a computer. If you are at admin grade you should certainly seek a pay rise if you are playing with and creating images!
Possibly you might seek to call yourself an 'image editor'.
In older times a 'picture editor' in a newspaper company was the person who chose the photos to be printed in that newspaper.

If you do it all the time you're photo-editor.
It isn't as if the title becomes yours by doing the work. Interns can end up doing such work.
