Question about capitalisation

If I say:

It was given to the head, who said they would look at it later.

'the head' refers to the headmaster.

In this case is it capitalised, ie The Head/the Head?

I don't believe so.
 
No. You wouldn't capitalise doctor, engineer, lawyer etc. (although such people tend to have a habit of capitalising their profession)

Yes, I thought it was a common noun too. Just that someone was challenging me and it got me doubting myself.

Thanks
