Lawyers work throughout business in all kinds of jobs. They do not come with warning labels and they are not in general required to wear bells or warn others of their presence. There is no obligation for an HR employee to announce or disclose his/her education, State licensure, admission to bar or other professional training or credentials to other employees.

I don't think so, not if he is acting as head of HR and not as an attorney.
