Selecting Finder Items in Automator

Question

I am a long-time MAC user but have never used applescript or automator. I work in a Prepress department and need to find a simple way to select certain folders quickly.
Here's the scenario:
I have a folder full of jobs. They would look something like this:
12345_AdvertisingAgency
12349_CarCompany
13245_WhoeverCompany
13568_AnyCompany
Typically this folder would contain 500-600 folders with the same naming convention.
I need to find a way to ignore the first six characters (all 5 numbers + the underscore) and select the folder by the first letter after the underscore so that I can put all the "A's" in one folder, all the "B's" in another folder, and so on through the alphabet.
Does anyone know of an automator action that can do this?
Thank for any help.

Your Prep:
1. Create the destination folders, A, B, C, etc.
Your workflow:
1. Find Finder Items - Where= +jobs parent folder+ | Whose=Name-Contains-_A
click on Options and select 'Show Action When Run'
2. Move Finder Items- To= +destination folder+ ( A )
click on Options and select 'Show Action When Run'
Running it:
Hit the Run button. The first time you run it, the options are already set to move all the A jobs so you should be able to just hit Return to move through.
On subsequent runs, just change the letter/folder in Whose and To
