at first floor level or at ground level
In the USA and most other countries, the first floor is the floor at ground level. In the UK, this is the ground floor and the one above it is the first floor. We would normally say "at ground level" rather than "at ground floor level".

on the first floor
I'd usually use "level" if it weren't actually on the floor (e.g., you're discussing the part of the elevator shaft). And although we'd generally call it the ground floor, I'm assuming that there is a 1 on the landing and/or any elevators.
