Have 7 seasons of a show downloaded, but each episode is in it's own folder. What would be easiest way to restructure this to just 7 'season' folders?

Edit: I’m on Mac.

So basically first folder is ‘S01E01’ and it contains S01E01.mkv, second folder is ‘S01E02’ and it contains S01E02.mkv, and so on.

Is there some easy way to restructure this into just 7 ‘season’ folders containing the episode files?
